London, could be because of his statue in Trafalgar Square, or him becoming Prime Minister at one point.
Wellington - New Zealand
Not sure about the Hertfordshire town, but he is linked to Newport on the Isle of Wight. I can't remember why

Noodles....

I could have mentioned Indian Rubber, but I didn't
The reply was for Wellington Boots, not for Wellington's boots

Aldershot, Wellington and London all have statues of Wellington with his horse, Copenhagen.
Newport is where he had his boots made? Ordered beef encroute? Got elected to parliament?
