I am a travel writer for National Park Planner and I visited Moores Creek in June 2014. Located in Currie, North Carolina, about twenty miles north of Wilmington, Moores Creek National Battlefield preserves the site of an early American Revolution battlefield. An American victory, the battle on February 27, 1776, lasted only a few minutes, but it put an end to British control in North Carolina for the remainder of the war. The British soon turned their focus to stopping the rebellion in the north and didn’t renew the effort in the south until 1778, at which time they took control of Georgia and South Carolina, but never made much progress in North Carolina. The park consists of a Visitor Center where you can watch a 10-minute film on the battle and peruse exhibits and information panels in a small museum. Outside, you can tour the battlefield by walking the 1-mile History Trail. A short nature trail, the Tarheel Trail, takes visitors through a forest once dominated by longleaf pines, the source of tar and pitch used to seal ship hulls before iron boat technology came around. Walking is the only way to see the battlefield, but the trail is mostly paved and flat, so those in a wheelchair can make it around the trail. There is one short, sandy segment that having a little help wouldn’t hurt, but even solo, a person in a wheelchair can make it across this stretch of the trail. Visit National Park Planner (npplan) for plenty of photos and complete information about Moores Creek National Battlefield.

"Thank you to the people who were working the day I was there to get pictures and information for my Social Studies Fair project. Especially the older Lady who was very friendly. I would like to credit said Lady for helping me receive an "A" on it because of her willingness to teach me more about it by touring me around the inside and starting up the short ten minute video. Im only sorry I didnt say my thanks earlier."

This out of the way and lesser known historical site is truly the start of The American Colonies road to Freedom and Independence. In the heart of the coastal piney woods of North Carolina. A beautiful spot with lots of history. Find out about "Mother Covington"

Pretty neat historical site, within close proximity to Wilmington. A small Battle, but it has an interesting story. Staff and curators at the visitor center were friendly and knowledgeable.

Very nice grounds, damaged some by Hurricane Matthew. Still able to walk the path and read the memorials. Whole family learned a lot and got a lot out of this experience.

Amazing walking history lesson. Make sure to go when it is dry as the creeks around the battlefield will flood blocking off some of the trails.

Very interesting, small national battlefield that is well explained in display in the Visitors Center. One to two hours max to tour.
