Battle Of BarrosaThe Battle of Barrosa took place on March 5, 1811 between Anglo-Spanish and French forces as part of the Peninsular war. The Barrosa beach is in Chiclana de la Frontera, province of Cdiz, Spain. The battle, or at least the major engagement, seems to have taken place at the "Pinar de los Franceses", a marshy area about 15 km (10 miles) east of the Barrosa beach, where the road to Cadiz and San Fernando goes between a marshy area and a pine forest.
