Concord and Lexington were farming villages in eastern Massachusetts when the Revolutionary War began on April 19, 1775, when British regulars marched out from Boston toward Concord to seize militia stores. Militia companies turned out at Lexington Green and then at Concord's North Bridge, and as the redcoats retreated along the road back toward Boston, colonial fire from farmers and militiamen along the way turned the withdrawal into a running fight. In the century that followed, the route became a memorial landscape, with the stone walls, houses, and taverns along it treated as relics of that day. Local residents and visitors alike knew the stretch as the Battle Road, and by the centennial in 1875 both towns were marking the anniversary with monuments and commemorations.
