New Jersey Brigade Encampment Site, Military encampment in Bernardsville, United States.
The New Jersey Brigade Encampment Site spans 320 acres across Bernardsville and Harding Township, featuring preserved remnants of Revolutionary War fireplace foundations.
During the winter of 1779-1780, approximately 1,300 soldiers from four New Jersey regiments established their winter quarters at this strategic location.
The New Jersey Brigade Trail connects visitors to marked historical locations, presenting the physical evidence of Continental Army living conditions through remaining structures.
Visitors can access the historical site through trailheads located on Hardscrabble Road and Jockey Hollow Road within Morristown National Historical Park.
The soldiers constructed and occupied their log cabins by Christmas Day 1779, later relocating to Jockey Hollow when the Maryland Brigade vacated their positions.
