Bunker Hill 240^th Anniversary Re-enactment

May 29-30-31, 2015, Harvey Farm, Epping, NH

Information for Visitors / Spectators:

Scroll down to see the event schedule. There is spectator parking on site and a viewing area along Nottingham Square Road. Cannonade begins at 1 pm and battle at 2 pm Saturday.

1 pm battle on Sunday (the Colonials decide to counterattack and retake the hill).

Directions:

· From the Boston area, take Route 95 north to NH 101 west, then NH 125 north. Proceed 0.7 mile, turning left onto Water Street. Go 0.3 mile and turn right onto Main Street. After 0.6 mile, Main merges with Elm and becomes Plumer. Continue on Plumer to Nottingham Square Road. Placards will direct you to the encampments and parking. Please see The Event link below for site layout. Look for the Crown or Colonial encampment entrances.

· From the west and north, take Route 93 to NH 101 east, then NH 125 north, as described above.

For GPS or mapping applications, please use 105 Nottingham Square Road, Epping NH 03042. Please note that Google or GPS may direct you to use Elm Street, when turning off Route 125. This is fine, but Route 125 is very busy and we’d rather you turn left at the traffic light at Water Street.
