Fort Bull, Colonial military fort in Rome, United States

Fort Bull protected the Oneida Carrying Place, a strategic portage route connecting the Mohawk River to Wood Creek in New York State.

The French forces and Wyandot allies attacked Fort Bull on March 27, 1756, resulting in over 60 British casualties and the destruction of supplies.

The site represents the colonial military presence and the territorial conflicts between British, French, and Native American nations during the Seven Years War.

The Rome Historical Society manages visits to Fort Bull through guided tours, which require advance scheduling through their office at 315-336-5870.

The fort's earthwork remnants and a boulder monument from 1907 mark the location where the powder magazine explosion occurred during the French attack.
