Need a reason to take a drive through Pound Ridge, N.Y.? Head to Sellecks Corners Cemetery at the corner of Barnegat Road and 124 right over the border in New Canaan, Conn. Marvel at the little Methodist church there that opened to worshippers in 1851. Enjoy the peacefulness of the adjoining graveyard, and look out for wild turkeys.

  1. My Family built this chapel to honor Samuel Selleck. It’s as quaint as ever. Thank you to the organization for keeping up with the plot and the building.
