Built at Nevin [Cardigan Bay, West Wales] in 1815, the Waterloo was registered at 104 tons and, circa 1820, was trading out of Liverpool to Dublin. Subsequently changing her regular route to Gloucester to London, shortly before she disappears from record in 1844 she was trading out of Beaumaris [North Wales] to London
