The Patriot victory at Great Bridge had an impact on the course of the American Revolution that was out of all proportion to its size. It made the British position in Virginia untenable. It resulted in Virginia being free of any organized British presence for five critical years – free to provide massive amounts of men and supplies to the Continental Army with virtually no enemy interference.
