Pohick Bay Regional Park, 10301 Gunston Rd., Lorton, Va.
"Lebanon," built c. 1815, was
the home of EDWARD BATES. The first Methodist
meetings on Mason Neck were held in the barn,
and the area behind the barn was used for a burial
ground until Lewis Chapel was built in 1857. The
exact location of the cemetery and whether any
or all of the burials were ever reinterred in
the Lewis Chapel cemetery is not known. The house
and grounds are now owned by the Northern Virginia
Regional Park Authority and is now the Pohick
Bay Regional Park. The gold course surrounds the
house.
