Penn and Jordans

Your visit to Milton's Cottage and Chalfont St. Giles can be enhanced by a short journey by car to Jordans, home of an early Quaker Meeting House.


William Penn, Guilielma Springett who became Penn's first wife, Hannah who he married when Guilielma died, Thomas Ellwood, Milton's Quaker student, and the Pennington family with whom all but Hannah lived at one time, are buried in the grounds.

See also the Mayflower Barn, believed to have been constructed from some of the timbers of the Mayflower.

Jordans Farmhouse, now part of a hotel, where the early Quakers met in secret.
