In the woods on this hill are the remains of a regimental-sized Union infantry winter camp, most likely occupied by a New York regiment of the 3rd Brigade, 2nd Division. The hut sites dug into the ground by the camp’s occupants remain clearly visible and in most cases run in lines from the bottom to the top of the hill. The site was preserved by Syg Associates Inc. and the Friends of Stafford Civil War Sites prior to construction of the Sentinel Ridge Subdivision in 2005.
