Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Brigadier-General John Nicholson (1822-57) Memorial
The relief on the plinth depicting Nicholson’s death at the Siege of Delhi. “In spite of this reverse, Nicholson was keen to press on into the city. He led a detachment down a narrow lane to try and capture the Burn Bastion, on the walls north of the Kabul Gate. Rebel soldiers held most of the flat rooftops and walled compounds, and guns mounted on the bastion fired grapeshot down the lanes between the houses. After two rushes were stopped with heavy casualties, Nicholson led a third charge and was mortally wounded.” |
