Part of the cover hangs on the wall at the Hall and well kept by the N T Scotland. It was commissioned by Andrew L-H for his part in one of the last major engagements on Spanish soil during the Peninsular war 200 years ago today and serves as a reminder of events long ago.

Thanks to a Benjamin Burrell of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery for the image. The only known and confirmed image is of the bust held at the Hall which was intended for his burial at Westminster.
