History

On January 2, 1797, Thomas Griffith sold a tract of land to John Lungren, a paper manufacturer from Upper Providence for the purposes of developing a mill which was built in 1798.

After 1877, the mills were leased to Union Army General Robert Patterson.[3]

The Lenni train station was closed in September 1986, due to deteriorating track conditions and Chester County's desire to expand facilities at Exton Station on SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale Line.

gollark: I mean, if you can't actually mine anything, it sounds like a 51% attack would be impractical.
