Lord Fairfax worshipped here in the “Old Chapel” of colonial Frederick Parish, established 1738. This stone building dates from 1790 and witnessed the early ministry (1810–1885) of Bishop Meade. Governor Edmund Randolph and Col. Nathaniel Burwell lie in this burying ground with relatives, and neighbors.

Marker is at the intersection of Bishop Meade Road (Virginia Route 255) and Lord Fairfax Highway (U.S. 340), on the left when traveling north on Bishop Meade Road.
