posted by Michael Sodano on Thursday, February 6, 2003: Any history that would be realted to a Victorian Guest home called Bright Side Villa - Build in 1893 located on Shawnee Church Road, Shawnee on the Delaware, PA. Built about 17 years before Worthington's purchase of the area in 1910, the home's location may be on the site of the School in "Shawnee on the Delaware" dated 1860. Could have been part of Worthington's Buckhill Inn? Any help with guest or historical value would be greatly appreciated.
