The Merion Square Hotel, now the Old Guard House Inn, is said to have been frequented by colonial troops during the Revolution. In 1798 this building, served as the general store, the village post office and a hardware store. In the 1800's The Delaware Market House was a general store known as Davis'. The small house next to the Gladwyne Library was a grocery store and tea room.
