In 1882, the City Council of Brussels approved a suggestion to donate of the cemetery to re-bury British officers whose graves were in Brussels or around the battlefields of Waterloo and Quatre Bras. In 1888, a public subscription was launched by Queen Victoria in the United Kingdom to finance a suitable monument. The resulting sculpture by Jacques de Lalaing is a large edifice of bronze figures on a plinth of rusticated stone blocks. It depicts Britannia with lowered helmet and trident, surrounded by discarded British weapons, uniforms and equipment. Three lions lie at her feet; one is sleeping. Attached to the sides of the plinth are circular shields bearing the names of the regiments that fought in the campaign. Amongst the inscriptions is ("I remember the country of the dead"). The monument was unveiled by the Duke of Cambridge on 26 August 1890. Below the monument is a crypt with 16 niches containing 17 bodies, which were transferred there between
