Freestone Point Confederate Battery is a historic American Civil War gun emplacement located at Leesylvania State Park, Woodbridge, Prince William County, Virginia. The battery has four individual gun emplacements, which are fairly simple in configuration. All are formed by a large, deep, rectangular depression with high earthen berms built up on the north and south side of each depression. Three of the batteries are located on the cliff about 90 feet above the Potomac River. For five months, from October 1861 to March 1862, the batteries contributed to the Confederate military's success in blockading the Potomac River.〔 and (''Accompanying photo'' )〕 It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.〔 File:FREESTONE POINT CONFEDERATE BATTERY, PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, VA.jpg File:FREESTONE POINT CONFEDERATE BATTERY, PRINCE WILLIAM CO, VA.jpg File:Freestone Point Confederate Battery.jpg ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Freestone Point Confederate Battery」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
