Plan of the Area of Philipse's Hill or Philipse's
Heights
At the lower left corner of the plan is "Philips hauss," or Philipse Manor Hall, now in Yonkers. Crossing the Saw Mill River ("Samul Crique") below the house is Philipse's Bridge. The vertical road marked "Strasse nach albanien" is the Albany Post Road. Alongside this road are the Hessian regiments Prince Charles and von Tr?, and above them the J䧥r Corps. At the upper left are two j䧥r pickets: "1 officer 40 j䧥rs" and "1 noncommissioned officer and 15 j䧥rs." The road to the right crosses the Saw Mill River at Babcock's Bridge, where it forks on the right to the "Road to Mile Square" and on the left past Reverend Luke Babcock's house to the "Road to Sing Sing." Tarrytown is further to the north, beyond the map.
