Broad Run - The most notable historical site in Broad Run is Chapman's Mill, a.k.a. Beverley's Mill, which can be found two-thirds of a mile ESE from the center
of the town of Broad Run. The Battle of Thoroughfare Gap, a seemingly inconsequential but eventually very important battle of the American Civil War, was fought at
Chapman's Mill. The Battle of Thoroughfare Gap, also known as Chapman's Mill, took place on August 28, 1862, as part of the Northern Virginia Campaign of the American
Civil War. Confederate forces under Maj. Gen. James Longstreet successfully drove back Union forces under Brig. Gen. James B. Ricketts and Col. Percy Wyndham, allowing
his corps to unite with that of Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson prior to the Second Battle of Bull Run.
