The Conanicut Battery Historic Park preserves the Conanicut Battery, a colonial and 20th Century military battery in Jamestown. The 22-acre site is known for the earthen battery which was constructed by local militia during the American Revolutionary War, and for its commanding and strategic views of the West Passage of Narragansett Bay. The main feature of the park is the earthworks, which measure approximately 150 feet long and 75 feet wide and date back to 1931, as well as large partially underground defensive batteries such as Fort Burnside and Fort Getty that were built in the early 20th century by the U.S. military. The Conanicut Battery Historic Park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is open for the public to explore.
