This is the reproduction of the Henry House, the original having been heavily damaged during the 1st Bull Run battle; what wasn't destroyed fell prey to souvenir hunters of both armies. The small cemetery to the right of the house contains the final resting place of members of the Henry family. The tall tombstone marks the grave of 85-year old Judith Henry, a bed-ridden invalid, who was killed when a shell, presumably fired by Rickett's battery, entered her bedroom |
This is The Stone House, a highly visible landmark during both Battles of Bull Run, located on the Warrenton Pike. In both battles, The Stone House was used as a hospital. The house bears scars from the battles; a shell is embedded next to the top story window at the right on the end of the house |

This is the original
Robinson House and farm lane. Confederate troops of Hampton's Legion
formed in this lane in an ill-fated attempt to stem the advance of Federal
forces. Slowly, the Confederates were forced out of the lane into the pine
thickets to the rear of the house |
Confederate artillery at Jackson's Line on Henry Hill. When all seemed lost to the Confederates, Virginia infantry under the command of General Thomas J. Jackson emerged from the tree-line at the right center of the photo. The momentum of battle was about to shift |
