Forgotten Stories: Fort Decatur
Join Archaeology Circuit Rider Stefon Danczuk from Preservation Connecticut, the statewide non-profit for historic preservation, as he talks about the forgotten site of Fort Decatur in Ledyard, Connecticut. A site of national significance, Fort Decatur was constructed by Commodore Stephen Decatur during the War of 1812 to protect his ships from possible British assault on the Thames River.
The site was recently thrown into the limelight due to development, which Stefon will discuss briefly while focusing on preservation work and how to protect sites of history that are important to you! Q & A will follow.
