Moores Creek Bridge Battlefield / by Dave Hileman

This quiet, almost unknown, battlefield was the site of one of the earliest victories of the American Revolution by the patriots. It is also the last broadsword charge of the Scottish Highland Regiment. The bridge in the photo is reconstructed and was the focal point of the battle in February of 1776, 250 years ago. You can find Moores Creek in Eastern North Carolina near the town of Currie.

There is also a unique monument here to the women of the American Revolution.
