this little battlefield park while on a walk with my boyfriend. Having only lived in the area for two weeks, I didn't know this was down the street. The park itself is small, quaint even, but the informational plaques were helpful, if but a bit sad. There are photographs of what the area looked like (along with maps) when the battle took place. Now you look around and only see developments. The pathway is decent and wheel chair accessible](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/8638/b465b570-c208-4ec6-bf93-bde3f8612640.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Ox Hill Battlefield Park You can take time to visit Ox Hill Battlefield Park during your travels to Fairfax.
