The ‘Battle of Bunker Hill’, which took place on June 17th 1775, was the first time New England soldiers faced the British army in a pitched battle during the American Revolution.
Fought outside of Boston on the Charlestown peninsula, the battle itself took place, in large part, on Breed’s Hill rather than nearby Bunker Hill.
