It was easy to get to. Theres a lot of potential that can be done. However i feel that 3 posts and a patch of grass were not the best way to represent the history.

I found this place on Google, I was reading a book and the book told a story of this place and I looked it up and I learned some history.

One of Richmond’s not too mentioned sites but should be a must visit if you’re here. Adjacent is the shockoe bottom slave burial ground.

This important place needs a visitor center. There are informational signs but the maps are difficult to understand.
