Revolutionary War Caisson Restored In Plymouth
Using funds provided by a N.H. Division of Historical Resources’ Conservation License Plate Grant, the Town of Plymouth was able to restore a caisson that supports a Revolutionary War-era cannon captured by General John Stark from British troops in 1777 at the Battle of Bennington—a turning point during the Revolutionary War. You can visit them in front of the town hall in downtown Plymouth. (The DHR is part of the N.H. Department of Natural & Cultural Resources.)
