History

Originally settled during the late 18th it remained unnamed until 1817. Like many surrounding villages in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Kimberton developed around a tavern; in this case, the tavern was called Chrisman's. In 1796, the Chrisman's Mill began operating, drawing activity to the tiny village. It operated until 1938 and is currently the town's post office.

In 1976 (with a boundary increase in 1987), the Kimberton Village Historic District was established as a national historic district.
