Queen's Fort is a historic site in Exeter, Rhode Island. Little more than a round, rocky hillock, the site has long been described as the site of a Native American fortification constructed in 1676 by members of the Narragansett Indian Tribe who survived the Great Swamp Massacre.[2]
The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1]
