The Woodlands at this address is an 18th–19th century estate and rural cemetery that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and interpreted for its landscape, architecture, and notable burials. The site includes the Woodlands Mansion, designed by William Hamilton, and an adjacent burial ground containing graves of prominent Philadelphians; it is a center for historic tours and educational programs. Like many historic cemeteries, The Woodlands has accrued local ghost stories and folklore, which are presented as part of the site's cultural history rather than established fact.
