Did the British move by land or sea from Boston to take the arms at Concord?
By Sea. At that time, the city of Boston was out on the end of a long penisular. There was only road leading into the city, which would be the "land" route. The route by sea was crossing the bay due north into Charlestown. Then they marched the roads to Lexington and then to Concord. The words "One of By Land and Two if by Sea" were from the poem by H. W. Longfellow. This poem has some things that are NOT historically accurate. They did display 2 lanterns in the belfry of the Old North Church but the signal was not for Paul Revere but for the "rebels" across the bay. Also, two riders were sent to warn Lexington and Concords. Paul Revere took the route across the bay (or by sea), where he mounted a horse. Another rider road the land route to reach Lexington about the same time. Later, on the ride to Concord, both were captured by a British patrol and a local doctor took the alarm to Concord.

The British commander was General Thomas Gage. In 1774 he was appointed the military governor of the Province of Massachusetts Bay (Massachusetts) under the laws known as the Intolerable Acts.
