Squire Cheyney Farm, Historic farm in Thornbury Township, Pennsylvania, United States.

The Squire Cheyney Farm features a stone farmhouse built in 1797, along with a barn, springhouse, and remnants of agricultural structures across the property.

During the Battle of Brandywine in 1777, Thomas Cheyney provided critical intelligence to General George Washington about British troop movements in the area.

The farm complex represents the evolution of dairy farming practices in Chester County, from early cheese production to later butter manufacturing operations.

Visitors can access the public park areas surrounding the historic structures while learning about agricultural methods through educational displays and guided tours.

The property contains a family cemetery established in 1803, featuring original grave markers and providing insights into early American burial practices.
