Description
The Magazine and Gaurdhouse at Market Square - #colonialwilliamsburg Archaeological and restoration work was being done outside of the Magazine. This building was constructed in 1715 as storage for the arms and ammunition dispatched from London for the defense of the colony. Just before the Revolution, it was the scene of a famous confrontation between Williamsburg residents and the royal governor, when his soldiers absconded with the colony's gunpowder.
