Caption: Original Communications Trench Marker
Additional Description: A communications trench joined the town stockade with the Stockade Fort which lay 200 yards to the west. This "covered way" allowed troops in the garrison to get water from Spring Branch or move from the town to the Stockade Fort without being exposed to rifle or musket fire.
