Willowdale is an unincorporated community that is located in East Marlborough Township, in southern Chester County, Pennsylvania, United States.

While that description has since been proven to be inaccurate, due to the dating of other homesteads in the region, this fieldstone house is still considered by area historians to be an historic structure.

When Cornwallis reached the crossroads, he encountered a small party of American troops commanded by Lieutenant Colonel James Ross of the 8th Pennsylvania Regiment.

[2] During the nineteenth century, the crossroads grew as the nearby Du Pont Factory increased its manufacture of black powder.

In 1906, a trolley line was built by the West Chester Street Rail company through the present-day crossroads and following the Unionville Road.

The service, which originated in Kennett Square, stopped at the station at the general store near the crossroads at Willowdale, and ran ten minutes before and after each hour throughout the day.

Today, this area is known for varying commercial services such as food, health, financing, and local state government offices.

Set in a natural amphitheater, the course features traditional European hedges, post, and rail fences and a water jump.
