Brown Park, on Browns Lane just past the intersection of Sherburn Lane

This cemetery is in very poor condition. The gate is padlocked, but the hinges are broken. The wall is in good shape, and the grass is cut, but the cemetery looks like it has been ransacked. Stones are toppled and broken, and crypts have been opened and are empty. (6/10/2015). James Brown's home, Wildwood Farm, is listed as the James Brown House on the National Register of Historic Places. His son's home, the Theodore Brown House (now the Inn at Woodhaven, a bed and breakfast) is nearby, and is also on the National Register of Historic Places. Unfortunately, the cemeteries that were part of the homeowner's original land are not always included in the historic preservation area.
