You need this then. I quite fancy a visit to the "other" chalfont. There are strong links with William Penn, and a lot of local names appear as towns and boroughs.

Chalfont, USA: I drove through there when in the US last year. I'm trying to remember, but it was in a county called Britain in the township of Buckingham or somesuch!

I found someone in Chalfont to see if they had a forum. Here is a very interesting and detailed reply:- Hmm, good question. Another landmark (if it's still considered Chalfont and not Doylestown) is the Shrine of Czestochowa, which I am told is an important catholic shrine to the Black Virgin. It sits high above Lake Galena/Peace Valley Park, at least half of which lies in Chalfont (shared with Doylestown).

That's quite a response!
I wonder if they could spread the word about the forum so people there can join us... |
