The archives of the Springfield Township Historical Society are housed at the headquarters of the Chestnut Hill Historical Society. We welcome visitors and researchers to come and use the collection which includes numerous photographs of Springfield Township sites, a selection of Colonial era tax records, research on the history of various residences and institutions, and atlases and maps from the late 19th through the 20th century and more. The collection also contains a number of deeds and documents relating to Springfield Township properties, as well as an extensive holding of information, photographs and artifacts from the Stotesbury estate, Whitemarsh Hall.
