Newtown Township,also referred to by the name of its post office ofNewtown Square,[2]is atownshipinDelaware County,Pennsylvania,United States. Prior to 1789, it was part ofChester County.[3]As of the2020 census,the population was 15,002.[4]
History
[edit]The first mention of the township was in 1684, when Thomas Norbury and John Humphrey were appointed collectors of the "Levie for the cort house and Prison for ye Township of Newtowne".[5]Newtown Square was the name used for the townstead with the majority of early settlers beingWelshmen.These Welsh "Friends" (Quakers) needed a road to facilitate their journey to meeting, the only established road at the time being Newtown Street Road, which ran north and south. As such, in 1687, an east–west road was laid out (Goshen Road) so the Friends could attend either Goshen or theHaverford Friends Meeting.By 1696, these friends had become numerous enough to hold their own meeting in Newtown and continued to meet in a private home until the completion of theNewtown Square Friends Meetinghousein 1711. In the 18th century, Newtown was basically a farming community.Blacksmithandwheelwrightshops emerged on the main arteries to service horse and buggy travelers. Taverns and inns were also opened to accommodate local patrons as well as drovers taking their livestock to the markets in Philadelphia.
During theRevolutionary War,Newtown township was visited several times by foraging parties of theBritish Army.On Goshen Road, west of Newtown Square, were the outpost and headquarters ofGeneral Potter.[6]
During the 19th century a number of mills sprang up alongCrum Creek(the western border) andDarby Creek(in the northeast corner of the Township). These included saw mills, paper mills, shingle mills, and a woolen factory. In the Darby Creek area a number of tenement houses were built as well as a general store to service the needs of the mill workers.
In 1860, the population of Newtown Township was 830; the population ofPhiladelphiawas approximately half a million. At this time, the railroad was laying track out of Philadelphia in all directions with services toChester,Media,West Chester,andRadnor,but not Newtown Square. As these towns, as well as stops along the way, grew and prospered, mills closed and businesses declined in Newtown Square. By 1890, the population had fallen to 648.
As an agricultural community, stone farmhouses graced the country landscape throughout the 19th century. Additions were made to the early simple dwellings as families grew and more living space was required. Prosperity, due to a growing market, also enabled property owners to make additions, not only to their own homes, but on the property as well as in the form of tenements and outbuildings.
In 1859, the Rose Tree Hunt Club was organized south of the township, followed by the Lima Hunt Club to the west (1885) and theRadnor Hunt Clubat the intersection of Darby-Paoli and Goshen Roads in 1886. With these developments, many country estates were built in the rolling hills of Newtown Square for "either country gentlemen of Old Quaker blood... or rich Philadelphians who loved hunting, owned good horses, and were not afraid to ride them." Major transportation developments for the Township did not occur until the mid-1890s, when trolley service was opened to Newtown Square. Before this time, railroad lines had been proposed, but due to a series of reorganizations and competition between companies for rights of way, as of 1892 no track had been laid. In 1894, however, a mule-drawn service was initiated by the Philadelphia and Delaware County Railroad, with steam dummies used to help out on the hills. Electrification was completed the following year and the trolley was open from Newtown to Fernwood in 1895. By 1889, the reorganized Philadelphia and West Chester Traction Company had completed the track to West Chester.
At the turn of the 20th century, the automobile began to disperse the urban populations over the countryside. Thetrolleys,along with automobiles transformed the country farmers into suburban commuters. Farms were sold and the land subdivided. Newtown Square boomed. Many city dwellers retained their country estates; however, these became hidden amidst gridiron developments. Although construction slackened during the depression, another boom was experienced afterWorld War II.
Today Newtown Township has a land area of 10.11 square miles (26.2 km2), and a population of 15,002 individuals. Some farms and large estates remain, but for the most part, the township was developed into a suburban community with old stone homes and structures dotting the landscape to serve as reminders of days gone by.
