What is the Sextons House?
The Sexton’s House (SH) is a historically important (circa 1829) eye sore located across the street from the beautifully restored, London Tract Meeting House (1729) and the White Clay Creek Preserve park office. The SH once housed the caretaker of the Meeting House and serves as a great example of Penn Plan architecture. Penn Plan houses were inexpensive and simple dwellings, made from expedient, local materials, therefore, funds have not been allocated to restore the Sexton’s House. White Clay Creek Management can either cultivate the necessary resources to save the Sexton’s House or they may be forced to raze it, loosing an important part of Chester County history.
