Bunker hill was located on a peninsula that hangs out over boston. It also contains the now empty city of charlestown. The men spent all night digging, and when dawn broke they had a pretty nice redoubt in place. When the british navy caught sight of the rebel fortifications next morning they opened fire - but it did minimal damage. And despite good work on breed's hill, all likely flanking routes were still perilously unguarded.
