About this listen
Continuing the story of "The Battle Within The Battle", this episode moves eastwards from Episode 28 on the Coldstream Guards, from the walled garden and into the large apple orchard. This was the battlefield over which the Third Regiment of Foot Guards fought throughout the 18th June 1815 - charging up to line the ditch at the thick head to the south, being beaten back to the sunken lane, where they would reform and repeat the same advance. Throughout the day, the Regiment was able to repulse a larger French force due to the help of the devastating fire coming from the Coldstream lining the east wall of the garden.
