SITE OF FORT CUMBERLAND BUILT IN 1755
Fort Cumberland was used by General
Braddock and George Washington as a base
of operations during the campaign against
the French and Indians. Parade grounds were
in the rear of the church. Subterranean
passageway leads to the river, so that the
fort could be supplied with water during a
siege.
