Event Details
On April 25, 1777, British troops landed not far from the Westport library on Compo Beach and marched north to Danbury to burn Continental Army supplies. While the American colonial regulars and militia could not reach Danbury in time, they made a stand in Ridgefield to try and stop the British from returning to their ships.
