Woodford is a historic mansion at Ford Road and Greenland Drive in Fairmount Park, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Woodford was built on 12 acres (49,000 m2) of land as a 1½-story summer residence by William Coleman, a wealthy merchant and justice of the Pennsylvania Supreme Court.
[4] Upon Coleman's death in 1769, the house was sold to Alexander Barclay, a Quaker who served as His Majesty's Customs Comptroller for the port of Philadelphia.
He took his family to New York City, and transferred the property to Thomas Paschall in settlement of a debt.
The building was restored, commencing in 1927, and in 1930, it was opened to the public as a house museum, which it remains today.
