YEAH, two correct answers!!!!
Yes, Admiral Horatio Nelson, the admiral who commanded the British Fleet at Trafalgar. is the statue which adorns the top of the Nelson Monument in Trafalgar Square. The name commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar (1805), a British naval victory of the Napoleonic Wars. The original name was to have been "King William the Fourth's Square", but George Ledwell Taylor suggested the name "Trafalgar Square". On the north side of the square is the National Gallery and to its east St Martin-in-the-Fields church. The square adjoins The Mall via Admiralty Arch to the southwest. To the south is Whitehall, to the east Strand and South Africa House, to the north Charing Cross Road (this is the Tube stop for the London Underground to visit the square), and on the west side Canada House.
At the corners of the square are four plinths; the two northern ones were intended for equestrian statues, and thus are wider than the two southern. Three of them hold statues: George IV (northeast, 1840s), Henry Havelock (southeast, 1861), and Sir Charles James Napier (southwest, 1855). On the lawn in front of the National Gallery are two statues, James II to the west of the entrance portico and George Washington to the east. The latter statue, a gift from the state of Virginia, stands on soil imported from the United States. This was done in order to honour Washington's declaration he would never again set foot on British soil. A bust of the Second World War First Sea Lord Admiral Cunningham by Franta Belsky was unveiled in Trafalgar Square in April 1967 by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
The square used to be famous for its feral pigeons, and feeding them was a popular activity with Londoners and tourists. The estimated flock at its peak was 35,000, and considered a health hazard. In 2000, the sale of bird seed in the square was controversially terminated and other measures were introduced to discourage the pigeons, including the use of trained falcons. The square is a social and political location for visitors and Londoners alike. When my friends and I are out in the London area, we always meet at Trafalgar Square ON Nelson's Column -- we even got our pictures taken on the lion (I named him Leo - my astrological sign). This is an easy stop from the London Underground and definately a wonderful place to just "people watch." They have jugglers, artists of every kind- including sidewalk mural artisits - and tons of musicians. Definately world famous!!! And FUN!!!
I hope some of you are learning from these trivia questions. I am going to try to make the time frame for answering shorter -- like four days -- so I can do more. Best of luck on the next questions.
