You are in luck as I just recieved a flyer with just that information You can write to Pricketts Fort Foundation, RT 3, Prickette Fort State Park, Fairmont, WV 26554 or Phone 304-363-3030 The original Pricketts Fort was built in 1774 by the people of Pricketts Settlement as a place of refuge from Indian attack. During the Revolution, The fort saw use as a military post. by late in the 18th century, the fort was no longer needed and was dismantled. The memory of the Fort lingered on into the 20th century and in 1976 the Fort was reconstructed according to traditional descriptions.
