Memorial to Jubal Anderson Early, Lieutenant General C.S.A., and to the brave Confederate soldiers under him who came to the rescue of Lynchburg when it was threatened by an invasion of Federal forces and erected these earthworks behind which they intrenched themselves in their defense of the city.

Marker is at the intersection of Fort Avenue (Business U.S. 460) and Memorial Avenue (Business U.S. 29), on the right when traveling north on Fort Avenue.
