I am researching an account of Waterloo and having ridden out of the gate at Brussels towards Waterloo, he passes the village of Fleugatt, probably a miss spelling, but I cannot find anything like this. Any ideas??

@Rob Wolters Could well be, I stay (or rather stayed, before lockdown) in so many chain hotels, they all merge into one. Just the names seem familiar.
On British maps it's sometimes spelled "Fleugat" with only one T. Where the N5 runs through it, it's called the Vleurgatsesteenweg (=Fleugat Stone Road).
Thanks Rob
Its proper spelling is "Vleurgat". Nowadays it's in Brussels. Where the N5 crosses the N24.
