The Inniskillings at Waterloo by Jason Askew. (GL)


The Inniskillings at Waterloo by Jason Askew. (GL)

The 6th Inniskillings were part of the Union Brigade of Heavy Cavalry alongside the 1st Dragoons (Royals) and 2nd Dragoons (Scots Greys) and commanded by General Ponsonby. At a critical point in the battle, at 2.00 pm, the two brigades of Heavy Cavalry (the other was the Household Brigade) were ordered to charge a massive French assault of infantry and cavalry which was bearing down on the allied line. The charge of the Heavy Cavalry saved the day. The Union Brigade smashed into the French infantry and then on to the artillery. But the charge carried on too far and the Inniskillings were attacked by fresh French cavalry and suffered heavy casualties: 193 out of 400, plus 190 horses.

The Inniskillings at Waterloo by Jason Askew.
 Depicting Wellingtons withdrawal on 17th June 1815, the day before Waterloo, when the Prussian retreat to Wavre had left the British position dangerously exposed. There are a lot of similarities between this painting and Meissoniers Friedland 1807, but from a British perspective.

Wellingtons March From Quatre Bras to Waterloo by Ernest Crofts
 Mistaking the withdrawal of wounded troops from the plateau of Mount St John for a general retreat , Marshal Ney ordered 5000 heavy and light cavalry to charge the allied position.  Far from retreating, Wellington was in fact reinforcing his beleaguered front line.  Wave after wave of French cavalry repeatedly threw themselves at the allied squares for over an hour but failed to make an impact.  Here we see the 30th Regt - now the Queens Lancashire Regt - formed in square repelling The Dutch (Red) Lancers of the Imperial Guard.

Charge of the Dutch Lancers against the British Squares at Waterloo by Brian Palmer.
