The Martha Pennock House is a set of two historic homes that are located in East Fallowfield Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania.
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
The older house was built circa 1825 as the Ironmaster's mansion by Martha Pennock, widow of Isaac Pennock, for her son Isaac. It is a two-story, five-bay, stuccoed, stone, Federal-style dwelling. The second house was built circa 1840, and is a two-story, four-bay, stuccoed, stone, Greek Revival-style dwelling. It features a full-width, front verandah. The mill complex where the houses are located was the home of Rebecca Lukens (1794–1854), daughter of Martha Pennock, for a short time after her marriage to Charles Lukens.[1]
