Chichester Friends Meetinghouse
Chichester Friends Meetinghouse, Quaker meetinghouse in Boothwyn, Pennsylvania, US.
The Chichester Friends Meetinghouse stands as a rectangular stone structure measuring 33 by 38 feet with separate entrances at both the men's and women's sides.
Built in 1769 following a fire that destroyed the original 1688 structure, the meetinghouse bears bullet holes from British troops during the Battle of Brandywine in 1777.
The meetinghouse design reflects early English Quaker architecture, with a central partition that divided the space between male and female worshippers during services.
Located at 611 Meetinghouse Road near Boothwyn, the building maintains its original condition without modern heating, plumbing, or electrical systems.
The land for this meetinghouse was sold in 1688 by James Brown for a nominal fee under the specific condition it would be used for Quaker worship.
