WELCOME!
Sugartown is a rural crossroads
village dating back to the late 18th century, located in Willistown
Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania. Named after Eli Shugart, an early
19th-century tavern keeper, Sugartown was a typical crossroads village
that provided goods and services required by the surrounding farm
community. Its central location in Willistown Township made it a favored
place for political and social organizations to hold meetings in the
schoolhouse, tavern, and community hall located there.
The buildings
remain largely intact, so the village provides an exceptional
example of a self-sufficient, late 18th- early 19th-centuries community.
