NOROTON RIVER CEMETERY

Noroton River Cemetery is located on the Post Road, south side in the Noroton section of Darien. It is bounded by a stone wall both in the front and on the Noroton River side. The majority of the gravestones inside the cemetery are so weathered that the inscriptions are no longer readable. Some of the gravestones have fallen and are sunken into the ground. Others are just broken with no sign of where the missing pieces might be. Some of the stones look to have been "inscribed" by vandals as well. Unfortunately, this cemetery also seems close to being lost.
