Summit Point Battlefield
Together we have saved 455 Acres
The Summit Point Battle Friends Group interprets the battle fought here in 1864. Confederate battle lines formed north and south of the mansion at Richwood Hall, built around 1825, which still stands on Earle Road south of the Middleway Pike. A wayside marker at the John and Lucy Packette House on Locust Hill, located on Sheriden Drive on the grounds of the Locust Hill Golf Course, marks the position of the Union line.
