Note 1:
After Paul Revere rode thru the territory north of Boston to warn: "The British are coming",
The men around Lexington, MA gathered in this tavern next to the Lexington Green until the next morning when they would be assembled on this Green to face the British that had come up from Boston to seize the stach of arms hidden by Minutemen
......Until someone fired
"the shot heard around the world."
that started the American Revolutionary War

Note 2:
You are able to visit this landmark today. You'll notice the low ceiling in the tavern because people were much shorter then and you'll be able to stand at the very bar our forefathers dicussed the birth of a nation.
