216 E. State Street – State Street Meeting 1813; (presently Kennett Library, 1962-2022)

In 1813, Quaker villagers petitioned Old Kennett Meeting for a meeting house in Kennett Square. A stone building known as State Street Meeting, was erected on a 3-acre parcel. The stone building was razed in 1873 so that a larger brick building could be built. That building lasted until the late 1950s when the meetinghouse was sold to the library. Part of the adjoining burial ground was sold to the US government for a new post office. The remaining part of the burial ground was sold in 2001 to the Borough. All remains were moved to Old Kennett Meeting burial ground.
