Woodlands

This National Historic Landmark is a 54-acre cemetery that was once the country seat of William Hamilton, who hailed from a family of wealthy colonial lawyers and politicians. Two of Hamilton's 18th-century buildings stand in the grounds surrounded by elaborate Victorian funerary monuments and the shady trees he planted as part of his desire to craft an ideal English landscape.
