Artillery Position and Defensive Line
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: January 5, 2008
Caption: Artillery Position and Defensive Line
Additional Description: From this rise, the artillery piece was able to cover the crossing of Mountain Run at Norman's Mill. Later, in the fall and winter after the Battle of Brandy Station, the Federal II Corps camped in this vicinity, and may well have contributed to the artifacts, particularly bullets, found at this site.
