This house dates back to roughly 1722, and is a -story, five-bay by three-bay,
fieldstone dwelling that was designed in the
Georgian style. It has a gable roof, a two-story rear kitchen wing, and a sun porch, and was restored during the late-1930s. During the
American Revolution, this house served as headquarters for Colonel
Clement Biddle, in late-1777 and early-1778, during the encampment at
Valley Forge. At that time, a committee of congress met at Moore Hall for three months and there decided that General
George Washington should serve as Commander-in-Chief of the
Continental Army. At the turn of the twentieth century, the house served as the summer home for Pennsylvania Governor
Samuel W. Pennypacker. ==References==
