Maham Tower

During the Siege of Ninety Six, Patriots built a Maham Tower.  Sharpshooters were able to fire into the Loyalist held Star Fort.  The Loyalists tried to burn the tower but it was made of green wood & would not burn.  The original was 30 ft tall, but our replica at Ninety Six NHS is only 10 ft tall.
