Leiper Historic House — Attraction in Nether Providence Township

Really cool historical site but questionable staff. I went here with a group of friends to check out the area and by the time we had gotten there it was dark, but we decided to explore anyway because there are no hours of operation listed and no signs that say that they're closed after sundown. We DID make a concious effort to look for such signs. We weren't acting suspiciously at all, merely walking around the grounds. When we were about to leave, two cars came speeding up the driveway at 90 miles an hour (not exaggerating) and one of them SPED UP when she saw me still walking across the driveway, so much so that I had to jump out of the way to avoid being hit. I am convinced that she was trying to hit me, as me and my friends all heard her motor distinctively rev as soon as her headlights hit me. The woman in the car began interrogating me and my friends about why we were there, clearly assuming that we were trying to break in.

She went inside and then a man came out of the building and said that the woman who had just offered the tour would not give one after all. There was no notice on the website or any sign on the premises indicating that it was closed for the day. A total waste of...

I'm giving it five stars for fishing! We didn't get a chance to actually go to the historic house, but there are a lot of areas for fishing along Crum Creek there. It's a favor for my grandson. He usually catches some bluegill, other small fish like that and periodically a few bass. There are carp swimming around that are a couple of feet long but so far none of taking the bait! If you like to fish from the bank that's a...
