The British launched eighteen thousand troops at six thousand well entrenched Boers across the Tugela river at Colenso, South of Ladysmith in an attempt to break the siege of Ladysmith.
Poor intelligence and siting of guns too close to the Boer positions caused the attack to be called off with the loss of one thousand British soldiers (to eight Boer casualties) and ten of the twelve guns.
A marker is situated at this point, also the place at which Freddie, the only son of Lord Roberts, soon to become Commander in Chief South Africa fell. He is buried in the Chieveley Military Cemetery off the R103. The Clouston Field of Remembrance is on the site of General Buller's HQ - also off the R103.
