History:
The Bethlehem
Pike or "Great Road" was petitioned for in 1698 and opened in
1703. Part of a highway system from Philadelphia to the Moravian
settlement in Bethlehem, it was completed by 1734. Starting from
the Germantown Pike in Chestnut Hill, it runs for a mile and a
half through Springfield Township. Eight inns were located along
this stretch with the most centrally located of these at the
11-1/2 milestone were the "Black Horse" and the "Eagle," the
first dating to 1744 and 1833 and the second to 1762. |

Initial Assessment:
Things seemed fairly quiet while we were there. There were a
couple of odd noises and a possible response to a question
during an EVP session. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Video: No
video anomalies |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Audio: Surprisingly
enough we did get some good EVPs even with all the traffic
outside on Bethlehem Pike. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Pictures: No
picture anomalies |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Conclusion: Looks
like the impression that the place was quiet and peaceful was
somewhat misleading by the EVPs that were captured. |
