I would expect that almost all Great Valley High School faculy, staff,students, & alumni would recognize this structure as the building/home that is near the 401 entrance to GVHS.

DEAR CELTIC RAINBOW: Your observation in reference to faculty, etc. is right on in identifying this location. A 36 year career teacher at GVHS.

Before the animal hosp. it was the Samworth home. Mr. Samworth was the manager for the Yerger farm that covered the area of the High School. Spring Mill Farms and the old national liberty (now empty) building. I interviewed him for my H.S. local history class. He talked about living in the farmhouse across from the Mill during the snow of March '58 and taking in nearby families without power. Not sure but i think this building was a schoolhouse back in the one room school days, Can anyone confirm?
