Was Boston under British or loyalist control during the American Revolutionary War?
Boston was under British control until March of 1776. Washington commanded the patriot army which was outside Boston, keeping the British penned up in town. The patriots had captured Fort Ticonderoga on Lake Champlain. Washington sent Henry Knox to bring the cannon from the captured Fort to Boston. This took months, and the dismounted cannon were hauled on ox sleds across New England in the freezing winter of 1775-6. When ready, over one night in March 1776 the patriots fortified Dorchester Heights overlooking Boston and emplaced the cannon there. This made the entire British position in Boston untenable, so the British boarded their ships and evacuated Boston. Boston remained in patriot hands for the rest of the war. When the British evacuated Boston in March 1776 there were no British troops anywhere in the thirteen colonies, but they would soon be back.
