Webb Memorial State Park

This peninsula played a role in the 1775 skirmish known as the Battle of Grape Island. During the Siege of Boston, British forces searched for resources in the islands, including Grape Island. From this location, townspeople of Weymouth and the local militia saw British soldiers taking hay from Grape Island on May 21, 1775. Sounding the alarm, local colonial forces initially fired upon the British before taking boats to the island and driving the British away. A memorial in Webb Memorial State Park commemorates this event. In the mid-1950s, the US Army temporarily installed NIKE-Ajax missiles at the tip of the peninsula. The military then transferred land ownership to the State of Massachusetts in 1977.

This is one of the many connections of how America and Britain forgave the past and became allies during the World Wars, solidifying them into the prophesied Anglo-American World Power as described in Daniel.
