Thoroughfare Gap Battlefield
Thoroughfare Gap Battlefield, Civil War battlefield in Broad Run, United States.
The 514-acre Thoroughfare Gap Battlefield features stone buildings, including the five-story Beverley Mill positioned along the north side of the mountain pass.
On August 28, 1862, Confederate forces under General James Longstreet defeated Union troops commanded by Brigadier General James Ricketts at Thoroughfare Gap.
The battlefield contains structures from different architectural periods, including Federal and Mid 19th Century Revival styles, representing military and civilian life.
