Reviews
"Its nice that its a site to see but honestly a major let down to a major engagement of the revolutionary war. Would like to see the small park have some monument or even a few artillery pieces to show something happened here."
"Largest Revolutionary War battle in New England."
"Not exciting but I have to give props to our troops."
"Gorgeous place. A picturesque little meadow with a plaque explaining the history. Lovely. I got some very nice pictures."
"A nice little site to visit. Not the scene of the main battle, but the placard gives a good rundown of the events of August 29, 1778. Not much parking available, so plan to visit during an off time if able."
