Tyler State Park

Newtown, PA, 18940-1151 US / PA

Location Description

Tyler State Park is comprised of 1,711 acres in Bucks County. Roads, trails, and facilities are carefully ensconced within the original farm and woodland setting and Neshaminy Creek meanders through the landscape. Prior to becoming a state park, the land was owned by Mr. and Mrs. George F. Tyler who purchased the land between 1919 and 1928: their first purchase was the Solly Farm. The Solly House served as the Tyler’s country home until their mansion was constructed. The mansion is now the administration building of the Bucks County Community College. The old original stone dwellings still remaining in the park serve as examples of early farm dwellings in rural Pennsylvania, with some of the structures dating back to the early 18th century.
