Four Mile Brook is a rural community located west of Central West River, it was named because it was approximately four miles from the origin of the Cobequid Road.

Using the crowd sourced Find a Grave app, you can search the Gladstone Cemetery  or  the Liggett-Andrews Cemetery  for names, details, and photos.

Four Mile Brook is also the name of the brook that starts flowing just south of Millsville (west of Grant Road), and flows south east through the community of Four Mile Brook and into the West River.
