Points of Interest
Sleepy Hollow is part of the Town of Mount Pleasant. Formerly "North Tarrytown" (it was officially renamed in December, 1996), Sleepy Hollow was immortalized in Washington Irving’s famous tale.
Sleepy Hollow - Headless Horseman Bridge
Off Route 9 in Sleepy Hollow, you will come to the Sleepy Hollow
Cemetery. If you follow the main road of the cemetery, you will ride
parallel to a stream with a small rapids, and come to a small wooden
bridge that townspeople know to be the Headless Horseman Bridge (some
say it was on route 9). If you read the Headless Horseman, the path of
Ichabod's chase goes down a grassy knoll, across the bridge, and when
you make a left, the Old Dutch Church is still visible on the right.
The Cemetery has the Van Tassel's graves, along with Washington Irving,
the Rockefellers, an Old Dutch Graveyard, The Old Dutch Church, and a
lot of other great spots. There's an old monument with a woman sitting
in a chair that Suburban Legends say wakes up and roams the cemetery at
night. Source: RoadsideAmerica
