About
West Caln Township is a 21.8-square-mile rural municipality in Chester County, officially recognized as a township since 1744, with its name tracing to Caln Township’s division in 1728. The residential landscape across its roughly 3,477 housing units spans Colonial Revival homes, ranch-style houses, split-levels, and historic farmhouses on predominantly acre-plus lots — most served by private well and septic, as public sewer infrastructure does not extend across much of the township. Hibernia County Park, a 900-plus-acre Chester County property within the township’s boundaries, provides residents direct access to hiking, camping, fishing on Chambers Lake, and boating on the West Branch of the Brandywine Creek, alongside the Hibernia Mansion and Sandy Hill Tavern — both listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
