On this battlefield, General George Washington and his troops surprised and defeated a British Regulars force on January 3, 1777.
You can also visit Clarke House is a two-story half Georgian frame house built in 1772 by Thomas Clarke, a quaker farmer. If you're into cool old houses, check out this place, which has been turned into an exhibit of sorts.
