Unique Fence Surrounding The Magazine at Colonial Williamsburg Virginia





This unique fence surrounds the Magazine at Colonial Williamsburg; where the guns and ammunition were stored in colonial times.  Royal Governor Dunsmore sent in marines to steal the powder to disarm the people as the strain between colonist and crown became great.
