Mayfield Earthwork Fort (Manassas Battlefield)
Human remains from 3,700 BC are found on the 11 acres that make up the Mayfield Fort. However, the Civil War-era year of 1861 saw the construction of the fortress. The Hooe family previously lived here, but they were forced to leave when the Confederates arrived to protect the railroad lines. Conscript slaves and soldiers constructed a ring of 12 fortifications around the railroad while it was under Confederate control. Visitors may tour the property and witness the remnants of the defenses as well as the marks for the original Hooe mansion’s foundation. On this site, there are historical reenactments.
