The Main Line

Haverford is located on the Main Line, which is another name for the western suburbs of Philadelphia along Lancaster Avenue (U.S. Route 30) and the former Pennsylvania Railroad Main Line. The Main line extends from the Philly city limits to northern Chester County and comprises an area of some 200 square miles. The Main Line was settled in the 1600s, when William Penn sold a tract of land (the Welsh Tract) to a group of Welsh Quakers for ten cents an acre.
