Manassas Tour


Following on from the visit to Gettysburg and Historicon we headed south crossing into Virginia for an overnight in Manassas.

Arriving in town on a hot, humid Sunday in mid-July you got a feeling what the similar conditions were like for the battle. Not wanting to over-exert we decided to take a shorter circuit just along Henry House Hill crossing over to the Robinson house and back to the visitors centre.

The 'new' Henry House
Being a wargamer I wanted to take some photos of the fencing, so here is a collection.
