Benning
Photographer: Craig Swain
Taken: November 11, 2008
Caption: Benning's Brigade Advances
Additional Description: Looking from South Confederate Avenue to the east across Benning's line of march. In the foreground is an orchard being replanted to restore the wartime appearance. The buildings are the Bushman Farm. Beyond, in the brown patches are first the a low ridge line where the Timbers house stood during the battle. Barely visible beyond that are the rock outcroppings of the Devil's Den. Then, very much dominating the path, are the monuments on top of Little Round Top. Benning followed the left wing of Robertson's Brigade to the Devil's Den, thinking that to be Law's Brigade. See "related markers" for Benning's second tablet at the Devil's Den to see the terrain confronting the Georgians there.
