Move to a lower place in Belgium (8)

I believe the answer is:

waterloo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'in belgium' is the definition.
(I know that Waterloo is part of Belgium)

'move to a lower' is the wordplay.
'move' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'moving' mean this).
'to'+'a'+'lower'='toalower'
'toalower' anagrammed gives 'WATERLOO'.

'place' acts as a link.
I am not very happy about this link. It may be part of another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for waterloo that I've seen before include "Heavy defeat" , "battle in Belgium" , "Campaign" , "Decisive defeat" , "Decisive battle" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
