The 1756 Uwchlan Meeting House is a fieldstone building in Lionville, Chester County, Pennsylvania, built by the area's Quaker community after John and Sarah Cadwalader donated the land in 1716. The stone structure that stands today replaced an earlier log meeting house, and it has witnessed more than two centuries of local history — including service as a makeshift hospital under Dr. Bono Otto during the Revolutionary War, when soldiers who died there were laid to rest in the adjacent burial ground. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. After the original Quaker congregation relocated to Downingtown in 1900, the meeting house took on new roles over the decades as a library and a school before the Woman's Community Club began restoring it in 1963. It has been owned and preserved by the Uwchlan Conservation Trust since 1976. Today the Meeting House is available to rent for meetings, weddings, family parties, memorial services, and other functions for up to seventy-five people, offering a small, historic setting with roots in the community dating back to the colonial era.
