Elm Brook Hill (formerly known as "Bloody Angle") was the site of a violent ambush against the British column on the afternoon of April 19, 1775. Edmund Foster, a volunteer from Reading Massachusetts (portrayed by Park Volunteer, Ed Hurley), will lead a tour to this battle site where he fought in 1775. Learn about this action from the words of one who was there! Ed will also be accompanied by local historian and author Don Hafner of the Lincoln Minute Men.

The tour will gather at the Hartwell Tavern in Lincoln MA. The walk is less than a half mile round trip. The trail is a hard-packed dirt surface. Wear comfortable shoes.
