Manassas Gap (VA108)

Description:

The battlefield area lies along Va Route 55 east of Front Royal and through the Manassas Gap in the Blue Ridge.  Much of it is steeply sloped and mountainous.  Portions of the landscape have been altered, but most essential features remain.  No known portion of this battlefield is protected.  Land development along the John Marshall Highway (Route 55) is beginning to impact the battlefield's core area.
