Newtown Square Friends Meeting House

The Newtown Square Friends Meeting House is a historic Quaker meetinghouse in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, United States, built in 1711 and expanded in 1791 and 1891.

Lots were sold to Welsh Quakers, who began arriving after 1681.

These Welsh Quakers met for worship in local homes, before constructing a stone meeting house in 1711.

The building remains in place, and has served various purposes since that time.

A stone wall was built around the cemetery in 1914 through the generosity of William Hood Dunwoody, who attended meeting here as a boy, and later helped found the company that became General Mills.
