Crown Point Road

In 1759, the British built the Crown Point Road following the defeat of French forces at Forts Carillon and St. Frederic on Lake Champlain during the French and Indian War. The Crown Point Road connected the Fort at Crown Point on Lake Champlain to Fort No. 4 at Charlestown, New Hampshire. Today, much of the road has disappeared entirely, reclaimed by forest.
