An impressive statue.

Apr 2017 • Couples

I like this bronze statue showing the Duke of Wellington mounted on his horse Copenhagen, surrounded by four solders – a Grenadier, a Scottish Highlander, an Irish Dragoon and a Welsh Fusilier. The statue is facing Apsley House, which was once Wellington’s London home. The figures of the soldiers were cast from twelve French cannons captured by Wellington's forces at various battles.

The statue is worth a look if you are visiting Apsley House or the Wellington Arch.

Perfect Position

Mar 2018 • Couples

Yes this is definitely in the perfect position due to being near the Wellington Arch and of course Wellingtons House if Number 1 London - Apsley House so it is not so obvious but a great statement to a great man of British History

A tribute to the Duke of Wellington

Nov 2015 • Friends

Located at the corner of Hyde Park, this statue is a tribute in bronze to the Duke of Wellington. It's worth a visit to see the artistry of the statue.

The one at Hyde Park Corner...

Apr 2015 • Solo

There are a number of statues of 'The Iron Duke', who achieved everlasting fame as the Allied commander at the 1815 Battle of Waterloo which finally extinguished the ambitions of Napoleon Bonaparte.
One twerp (14 April 2014) states in his review that this one, facing Apsley House over the road at the southeast corner of Hyde Park, is both here and also at the Royal Exchange, three miles away! ''You canna' change the laws of physics'', as Scotty used to say...
It's a reverential statue atop a high plinth and shows the Duke on horseback and surrounded by four soldiers.
Originally there was a larger equestrian statue of him on top of the eponymous arch close by. He rather liked that one but everyone else thought it looked ridiculous there so it was removed and we have this one instead.
Like most others, I usually see this from the top deck of a bus but it's worth a closer look if you are visiting Apsley House, Wellington Arch and/or the many other admirable war memorials around here.

Nice Statue

Jul 2013 • Family

This statue definitely adds up to the grounds it's on with the arch behind it; and all the memorials around it! The four soldier in four corners are a nice touch. Visit Buckingham Palace and walk over to Hyde Park and make sure to stop by on the grounds here to examine this statue and the memorials around it.
