As a battle, it wasn't all that important. But it was the first time that the colonial army faced up to the British Army. The American colonists were forced to retreat; we didn't "win" the battle. But before then, the British regular army soldiers had generally walked all over the Americans, and this time it was an actual battle. The British lost some of their cockiness and certainty, and the Americans learned that the British soldiers weren't supermen. The Americans learned that victory was possible, and the British learned that defeat was possible.
This "attitude adjustment" between the two sides was to be enormously important.

No, that is the correct name of the battle. It was fought on and around an adjacent hill, called Breed's Hill, but the name of the battle is and will always be, The Battle of Bunker Hill.

The battle didn't actually happen on Bunker Hill. It was on Breed's Hill. I really don't know why it is called The battle of Bunker Hill though Sorry if i didn't help you a lot :-(looser :)
No, they won the battle. The battle of Bunker Hill was actually fought on Breed Hill. The British won this skirmish. It was the first major confrontation between the British army and the Continental army. The commanders for the continental army were stationed on Bunker hill, because it offered the best vantage point.
