Description Webb FarmhouseLocated at The Meadows, Longwood Gardens, Kennett Square, Pa.Longwood has preserved the Webb Farmhouse as part of the history of this land. Constructed from local fieldstone, the exterior of the house was restored in 2014 by John Milner Architects of Chadds Ford, PA, to reflect its appearance at the end of the eighteenth century. The first floor of the interior of the house was adapted to serve as gallery space for interpreting the Meadow. The eastern gallery has been selectively restored to feature the original, large cooking fireplace that was the heart of the house.William Webb is the probable builder of this house and was known to have been here in the 1730s. Born in Gloucester, England, sometime between 1684-90, he arrived in Chester County with his parents around 1700. Eventually he purchased 301 acres of land that made up part of what is todays Meadow. In 1741 he was gifted another 203 acres from his father-in-law, George Harlan. Early settlers, like Webb, used the land to grow crops and raise livestock.
