Afternoon Tour of Ardrossan

View one of the last remaining great estates of the Main Line on this first floor tour given by Joanie Mackie, the granddaughter of the Montgomerys. A Horace Trumbauer design, the extended family has lived here since 1912. Playwright Philip Barry, a family friend, based The Philadelphia Story on members of the Montgomery family, Ardrossan and Radnor Township. Katharine Hepburn's character was loosely based on Helen Hope, Joanie's aunt. Please note the walking/standing scale for this activity is 3 feet which means Extensive Walking and Lengthy Periods of Standing.
