After the smoke cleared, the drums ceased, and the United States was founded, life in Concord started returning to a new normal. The Wright Tavern, built and opened in 1747, still operated as an inn and tavern, but conversations inside the tavern were now more about farming, prices, and town gossip. 

Early this year, National Park Service archeologists working at Minute Man National Historical Park discovered five musket balls that were fired during the world-changing event known as “The Shot Heard Round the World” on April 19, 1775.

 Early analysis of the 18th-century musket balls indicates they were fired by colonial militia members at British forces during the North Bridge fight.
