    Alamance Battleground Chapter
    Alamance Battleground State Historic Site
    5803 NC-62, Burlington, NC 27215, USA

    Celebrate three small but significant American victories in what is now Alamance County, North Carolina. The Battle of Pyle’s Defeat, Battle of Lindley’s Mill, and Battle of Clapp’s Mill were instrumental in changing the course of the war in central North Carolina.

    The Alamance Battleground Chapter will host a ceremony with color guards and a wreath laying remembering these victories in the fight for American Independence on the actual battleground of the War of Regulation where local citizens stood against Governor Tryon and his army in May 1771. Area chapters of both SAR and DAR are welcome to attend and provide a wreath of remembrance.

    In addition to this ceremony commemorating these battles of the American Revolution, there will be a day of living history demonstrations, a battle scenario, and historic log cabin and visitor center with exhibits of the era to share the history of the Battle of Alamance fought May 16, 1771.

    There is an admission fee of $5.00 for Adults and $2.00 for Students to help support the events and the battlefield park.
