The Battle of Caulk’s Field took place in the night of Aug. 30 and early morning hours of Aug. 31, 1814, during the week between the burning of Washington and the attack on Fort McHenry. During that time the British navy had the task of blockading American shipping on the Chesapeake Bay, transporting Royal Marines and sailors to points of attack, and using a fleet of battle-rigged ships of the line to harass and disrupt American military, commerce and regular citizens.
