Bradenville, Pennsylvania

Bradenville is a census-designated place and coal town in Derry Township in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, United States.

[8] Mathias W. Saxman's Bradenville Mine & Coke Works built about 40 company houses and a store in the town around 1914.

By 1915, its Bradenville Mine employed 195 persons, produced over 110,000 tons of coal and operated 194 beehive coke ovens.

Researchers in 1994 found that while the store (see Gallery section) and company houses survived, no mine structures remained.

In 2020, the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection began a $5.8 million project to stabilize about 150 homes in the town affected by this problem.
