No known existing records have been provided to state the date or purpose of the construction of this dry rock wall residing in Snow Camp, NC. The rock wall predates the United States revolutionary war, and was a camping location for British forces commanded by Gen. Charles Cornwallis after a Pyrrhic victory over Gen. Nathanael Greene’s forces at the Battle of Guilford Courthouse on March 15, 1781. Months after camping at this site Cornwallis surrendered to patriot forces under Gen. George Washington at Yorktown, Va., Oct. 19, 1781.
