Established in 1675, it is the city's oldest cemetery. It has about 650 known burials, dating from its establishment to 1977. It is located on a {{convert|2.62|acre|ha|adj=on}} parcel on a hill just east of the downtown area, and is accessed via a single entrance marked by granite posts at High and Brown Streets. Burials are laid out generally in rows, with headstones facing west. There are four earth-covered tombs near the entrance dating to the first half of the 19th century. Another prominent burial is that of Marlborough's first minister, William Brimsmead (d. 1701).[2] The cemetery was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.[1] See also
