During the War of 1812, Bath saw some of the conflict very close indeed with the escape of HMS Royal George, the largest British warship on Lake Ontario, from a determined American fleet chasing her through the channel to Kingston’s inner harbour. The “Flight of the Royal George” culminated in the only American attack on Kingston during the war. It ended with a naval battle at Kingston between the American and British ships, supported by the shore batteries at Point Henry. This was the only time shots were fired from Point Henry in its history.
At the same time, the merchant schooner Two Brothers, belonging to the Fairfield brothers, was destroyed by fire in Bath’s harbour.
