British troops were stationed in Boston Commons prior to the start of the Revolutionary War in 1775. The Boston Commons was a central location in the city and was used as a gathering place for troops and military exercises. The British troops were sent to Boston in 1768 to enforce British laws and maintain order in the city. The presence of British troops in Boston was a major source of tension between the colonists and the British government, and ultimately led to the start of the Revolutionary War.
