A small Revolutionary War engagement occurred on the Regulator battlefield on 5 March 1781. Ten years after the Battle of Alamance, and approximately two weeks before the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, soldiers of the Delaware Light Infantry commanded by Captain Robert Kirkwood fought a small contingent of British sentries from the Army of Lord Charles Cornwallis.
