Virginia is for Lovers. Historic Sites Fisher's Hill Battlefield Civil War Site. The Battle of Fisherâs Hill was an excellent example of a surprise flanking movement against a defending force in a strong position. The battle opened the Shenandoah Valley to the destruction of its agricultural base. Following his defeat at Third Winchester, Gen. Early withdrew and took up strong defensive positions at Fisher's Hill, south of Strasburg. George Crook's Federal VIII Corps, hidden from Confederate view, moved along North Mountain to outflank the left of Earlyâs line.
The Battle of South Mountain. This important battle was fought over a seven mile stretch of the South Mountain Range immediately prior to the Battle of Antietam.The Confederate objective was to delay the Union advance for a day or so while the scattered divisions of their army could reunite to face the Union forces.Called the Sharpsburg Road during the Civil War). The initial Union assault on South mountain swept up the slopes to the south (left) of this road on the morning of the 14th, before the action at Crampton's Gap.
