Old Haverford Friends Meetinghouse is a historic Quaker meeting house at 235 East Eagle Road in Havertown, Delaware County, Pennsylvania, United States. The burial ground attached to Old Haverford Friends Meetinghouse was laid out in 1684.[1] In 1688, the log meetinghouse was built. Later, a stone meetinghouse was subsequently completed in 1700. It is believed that the southern portion of the meetinghouse, with its rougher masonry, is the original stone building.[2]William Penn preached here soon after construction was complete and often attended worship.[3] The northern portion of the building was expanded in 1800.
