A community of past and present

The rural community of East Nantmeal consists primarily of the tiny Nantmeal Village, horse farms and wooded areas. The population of this 16-square-mile township is under 2,000, making it one of the least populated communities in Chester County. The earliest settled history of the area began around 1717 when Welsh Quakers arrived. Several homes in the community’s historic district still survive, including farmhouses, barns and churches dating back to 1760. The township boasts centuries-old working farms and a handful of residential developments. East Nantmeal’s residents treasure their ties to the past. “It is very quiet here, and there are a lot of families who have lived in this community for a very long time,” says Sarah Wagner of Philips Brothers Electrical Contractors. “Everyone is environmentally conscious and works hard to keep the community clean.” Wagner’s family is from East Nantmeal, as is the Philips family and their company. Wagner says East Nantmeal is a family-friendly community. It’s the sort of place where the local government’s website features news stories of the township’s purchase of a new tractor and of a local Boy Scout working to earn Eagle Scout by creating a local veterans memorial.
