In Westwood, at the intersection of High Street and Nahatan Street, is Westwood Cemetery, divided into the 'Old Cemetery' and 'New Cemetery.'

The old cemetery is easily visible from the intersection. The new cemetery access road entrance is across the street.

The old portion is in a semi-wooded area with access roads cutting through. Grave stones go back to at least the mid 1700s. Other, modern day graves are visible. The web site from town, states that this portion is generally full, except for sale transfers of individual lots. The new portion is a little more open. Graves are still available in the new portion. Both are managed by the Westwood Department of Public Works.
