Gordon Hill Cemetery
Also known as Perkins Hill Cemetery , Town Cemetery
Exeter, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, USA
The lot is rectangular and slopes downward to the east, with a gully/wash running through the middle. It is about 225 feet wide and 180 feet deep, and contains nearly an acre. It was once enclosed by a stone post fence with rails of timber about four or five inches square in cross section. The fence is now in very poor repair, consisting only of the granite posts. Part of the cemetery is overgrown with bushes and black cherry, and most of it is under a canopy of pine and oak trees. Several of the stones are lying flat and some covered are with leaves and earth. Most of the stones are of gray slate, and nicely carved; others are of white marble. Many of the oldest graves are marked by unlettered field stones, some have crude initials, and in some cases the age is given, but no year. It is highly probable there are more burials than extant stones but there are no known records documenting burials here.
