Buckingham Friends Meeting House
Buckingham Friends Meeting House, Quaker meeting house in Buckingham Township, Pennsylvania, US.
The 1768 stone building features a symmetrical two-cell layout with separate sections for men and women, connected by a movable partition wall.
Initially established between 1705 and 1708 with a log cabin, the current structure represents the fourth building erected at this religious gathering location.
The meeting house design influenced subsequent Quaker architecture across America by introducing the doubled-type layout that accommodated gender-separated business meetings.
Located at 5684 York Road in Lahaska, the meeting house maintains regular worship services and functions as part of the Buckingham Friends community.
The structure earned National Historic Landmark status for introducing architectural innovations that shaped Quaker meeting house construction for nearly 100 years.
