Burlington Heights, Ontario (Site of British Military Camp)

From Wikipedia.

Burlington Heights  is a promontory of land about 330 feet above Hamilton Harbor in the City of Hamilton, Canada.  It continues as a peninsula north to the City of Burlington.  It was the location of a British military camp during the War of 1812.

The post was established on the commandeered property of Richard Beasley in May 1813.  There were batteries on the north and south ends, a magazine, sally port and earthworks.  Troops from the 8th (The King's) and 49th (Princess Charlotte of Wales's Hertfordshire Regiments of Foot were stationed there after being forced to retreat from American forces  advancing into the Niagara  Peninsula in May 1813.

From here, British forces under the command of General John Vincent and Sir John Harvey launched a successful attack upon a much larger American force early on the morning of 16 June 1813, at Stoney Creek.

It didn't mention it, but the hangings from the Ancaster Bloody Assize took place here.

After the war, the barracks of the base was used as a hospital for immigrants with contagious diseases.
