The Battle of Bunker Hill or Battle of Breed's Hill was an event that took place on June 17, 1775, mostly on and around Breed's Hill during the Siege of Boston, early in the American Revolutionary War.


It was during this battle that the British major and Templar John Pitcairn was killed by the Assassin Connor Kenway.


Geography

Breed's Hill was an oval-like drumlin outside the city of Boston, and a part of the Charlestown peninsula. The hill was about sixty-five feet high, and sloped steeply to the east and west sides. It was surrounded by about 520 feet of dithes and small walls, built in a square-like shape by the Colonial soldiers under William Prescott.
