The Battle of Sultanpet Tope was a small action fought on 6 and 7 April 1799 between forces of the British East India Company and the Kingdom of Mysore during the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War. Although initially checked it was a British victory. ==Prelude== Once the British had marched to Seringapatam they prepared to lay siege to it. An aqueduct within of the fortress, near a wooded tope called the Sultanpet Tope or "Sultaunpet", afforded Tippoo's skirmishers and rocketmen firing rocket artillery a safe cover from which they most seriously annoyed the British outposts. Accordingly Baird, in the night of the 5 April, reconnoitred the ground, and on the morning of the 6th ordered Colonel Arthur Wellesley with four regiments to drive the enemy from the watercourse, so as to enable the British outposts to be advanced within of the citadel.
