The Fetter's Mill Village Historic District is located in the valley through which the Pennypack Creek flows.

Huntingdon Valley had regularly scheduled passenger train service until January 14, 1983, via SEPTA's Fox Chase-Newtown Rapid Transit Line; service ended due to failing diesel train equipment resulting in low ridership.

Although rail service was initially replaced with a Fox Chase-Newtown shuttle bus, patronage remained light.

In September 2009, the Southampton-based Pennsylvania Transit Expansion Coalition (PA-TEC) began discussions with township officials along the railway, as well as SEPTA officials, about the realistic possibility of resuming even minimal passenger service to relieve traffic congestion in the region.

All plans for resuming the train service were dropped in 2014 when Montgomery County officials decided to extend the Pennypack Trail over the derelict rail bed.

On July 15, 2009, the day care center successfully filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the club.

[9] Forest Hills Cemetery in Huntingdon Valley is the resting place of World War II figure Jack Agnew, loosely the inspiration of the novel and film, The Dirty Dozen.
