Which battle of the American Revolutionary War, fought on June 17, 1775, was mostly fought on Breed's Hill?

The Battle of Bunker Hill, fought on June 17, 1775, was mostly fought on Breed's Hill in Charlestown, Massachusetts.

Colonial forces fortified Breed's Hill during the Siege of Boston, hoping to control the heights overlooking Boston Harbor. British troops attacked the position in three major assaults. The British eventually captured the hill, but suffered heavy casualties.

The battle is named for nearby Bunker Hill because that was the original objective and the position where some colonial troops gathered. The famous order to conserve ammunition is traditionally associated with the battle, although its exact wording and speaker remain debated.

Despite being a British victory, the battle demonstrated that inexperienced colonial soldiers could stand against professional troops. It also encouraged the British to use more cautious tactics during the Revolutionary War.
