Taken: November 11, 2008
Caption: The Stony Hill
Additional Description: Known as the "Loop" today. Looking from DeTrobriand Avenue up the slopes of this rocky wooded hill. The 3rd and 7th South Carolina took this position from Barnes Federal Division. Barnes felt at the time his position was about to be turned, and fell back to the Wheatfield Road. In turn, Federals counterattacked with forces that included the famous Irish Brigade to wrestle the hill back, if only temporarily.
