Yorktown

The “old town” which you enter here is ringed by stout Civil War entrenchments built on top of the British works of 1781. Englishmen, Scotsmen, Welchmen, Hessians, and Loyalist Americans were quartered here while besieged by American-French forces under Washington.

Marker is on Zweybrucken Street, on the right when traveling north.
