Huddy Park is built around the site of the hanging of Joshua Huddy.
The historic marker reads,
"Here Captain Joshua Huddy of the Monmouth County Artillery, a prisoner of war captured March 24, 1782 while defending the Block House at Toms River was hung by Tories without warrant April 12, 1782. The British authorities repudiated but did not atone for that crime. The sons of the Revolution in New Jersey have set up this stone to memory of the patriotic victim." [1]
