Ditch Bayou Battlefield
Ditch Bayou Battlefield
|
Region: Delta
County: Chicot
The Ditch Bayou Battlefield is where Colonel Colton Greene's Rebels inflicted significant casualties on General Andrew J. Smith's attacking Federals on June 6, 1864. A historic marker on Highway 82 notes the site of the battle and the combat is interpreted in displays at nearby Lake Chicot State Park.
From I-20 at Tallulah, Louisiana, take Highway 65 north 85 miles to the intersection with Highway 82 in Chicot County, Arkansas. Turn right and proceed east for 2 miles. The exhibits are on the left.
