Marache
Marache, or historically Smohain, is hamlet in the Belgian municipality of Lasne. It is located in a defile through which runs the Smohain, a stream that rises just to the west of the hamlet.〔At the time of the Battle of Waterloo the hamlet was frequently referred to as Smohain and today La Marache is the usual name of the hamlet (see and the postal address of "Route de la Marache", 1380 Lasne, Belgium).〕
Smohain, along with the two farms of Papelotte and La Haye (which are located on the northern bank closer to the head of the same valley about and west of the centre of the hamlet) and the now ruined Châteaux Frischermont (on a premonitory south of the hamlet) formed the eastern bulwark of the Duke of Wellington's Anglo-allied line during the Battle of Waterloo on 18 June 1816.〔Papelotte is just over to the north-west of Frischermont. All these distances are given as the crow flies. The distances along the lanes that join the locations are considerably further and are given as by Jac Weller in ''Wellington at Waterloo'' as , , and respectively .〕
This was an strong defensive position as:
Later in the battle it was the location where the Prussian right-hand flank joined forces with the Anglo-allies left-and flank.
