Idlewild Farm Complex
Idlewild Farm Complex, Historic farm complex in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania.
The Idlewild Farm Complex encompasses 26 acres of land with multiple buildings constructed in Georgian architectural style near Black Rock Road.
Welsh farmer Robert Lloyd received 400 acres in 1698 and constructed the first structure, a one-room house with a loft, beehive oven, and walk-in fireplace.
The property evolved from a traditional crop and horse operation into a dairy farm specializing in Ayrshire cows under Frances Saunders' ownership in 1897.
The Bridlewild Trails Association, established in 1927 by Lawrence Saunders, continues to maintain and operate within the historical farm complex.
The original one-room house from 1700 remains on the property, along with subsequent additions including an 1860 springhouse built during John Williamson's ownership.
