'''Bryn Mawr''' ({{IPAc-en|ˌ|b|r|ɪ|n|ˈ|m|ɑː|r}}, from [[Welsh language|Welsh]] for 'big hill') is a [[census-designated place]] (CDP) located in [[Pennsylvania]], United States. It is located just west of [[Philadelphia]] along Lancaster Avenue, also known as [[U.S. Route 30 in Pennsylvania|U.S. Route 30]]. {{Asof|2020}}, the CDP is defined to include sections of [[Lower Merion Township, Pennsylvania|Lower Merion Township]], [[Montgomery County, Pennsylvania|Montgomery County]], as well as portions of [[Haverford Township, Pennsylvania|Haverford Township]] and [[Radnor Township, Pennsylvania|Radnor Township]] in [[Delaware County, Pennsylvania|Delaware County]].

Bryn Mawr is located toward the center of what is known as the [[Philadelphia Main Line|Main Line]], a group of affluent Philadelphia suburban villages stretching from the city limits to [[Malvern, Pennsylvania|Malvern]]. They became home to sprawling country estates belonging to Philadelphia's wealthiest families during the [[Gilded Age]], and over the decades became a bastion of old money. As of the [[2020 United States census|2020 census]], it had a population of 5,879. Bryn Mawr is home to [[Bryn Mawr College]], and contains a sizable amount of student rentals, with roughly half of the community's population aged 18–24.

==History==
[[File:Entrance Bryn Mawr.JPG|thumb|upright=1.1|[[Bryn Mawr College]]]]
Bryn Mawr is named after an [[Estate (land)|estate]] near [[Dolgellau]] in [[Wales]] that belonged to [[Rowland Ellis]], a [[Welsh people|Welsh]] [[Quaker]] who emigrated in 1686 to Pennsylvania to escape [[religious persecution]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/northwest/sites/history/pages/quakers.shtml|title=The Quakers of Dolgellau|website=bbc.co.uk|publisher=[[BBC]]|access-date=May 5, 2018|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061108174604/http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/northwest/sites/history/pages/quakers.shtml|archive-date=November 8, 2006|df=mdy-all}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://snowdonia-npa.gov.uk/page/index.php?nav1=enjoying&nav2=9&nav3=6&lang=eng&view=graphic&contrast=1|title=Snowdonia National Park Authority|access-date=April 18, 2007|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070928060522/http://snowdonia-npa.gov.uk/page/index.php?nav1=enjoying&nav2=9&nav3=6&lang=eng&view=graphic&contrast=1|archive-date=September 28, 2007|df=mdy-all}}</ref>

Until the construction of the [[Pennsylvania Railroad]]'s [[Philadelphia Main Line|Main Line]] in 1869, the town, located in the old [[Welsh Tract]], was known as Humphreysville, named for early settlers of the Humphreys family.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Anderson |first1=Perry |last2=Sutton |first2=Adam |title=A Brief History of Lower Merion Township |url=http://lowermerionhistory.org/?page_id=228 |website=The Lower Merion Historical Society |access-date=6 April 2023}}</ref> The town was renamed by railroad agent William H.

To encourage visitors the railroad constructed the Bryn Mawr Hotel adjacent to the new station, which opened in 1872. After a fire destroyed the original building, a distinctive new hotel designed by architect [[Frank Furness]] was built in 1889.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Senker |first1=Gerry |title=In 1890 Frank Furness Designed The Bryn Mawr Hotel, Which Became Baldwin School |url=https://thisislowermerion.com/in-1890-frank-furness-designed-the-bryn-mawr-hotel-which-became-baldwin-school/ |website=This is Lower Merion and Narberth |access-date=6 April 2023 |date=20 January 2022}}</ref> The second hotel building is currently occupied by [[The Baldwin School]] and was added to the [[National Register of Historic Places]] in 1979.<ref name="nris">{{NRISref|version=2010a}}</ref>

In 1893, the first hospital, [[Bryn Mawr Hospital]], was built on the Main Line by Dr. George Gerhard.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://brynmawrpa.org/BrynMawr100/16_brnmwr100_brnmwrhospi.html|title=Bryn Mawr Hospital, founded 1893 • A Brief History|website=brynmawrpa.org|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130817001016/http://brynmawrpa.org/BrynMawr100/16_brnmwr100_brnmwrhospi.html|archive-date=August 17, 2013|url-status=dead|access-date=2018-03-11|quote=In 1892 the country was staggering under an economic depression and on the verge of financial collapse, but the desire of Dr. George Gerhard, an Ardmore physician, to build a hospital in the growing suburbs of Philadelphia ...

[[File:Ludington Library.jpg|Ludington Library, part of the [[Lower Merion Library System]].|thumb|right|220px]]

According to the [[United States Census Bureau|U.S. Census Bureau]], in 2000, Bryn Mawr had a total area of {{convert|0.6|sqmi}}, all land, all in Lower Merion Township in Montgomery County.<ref>{{cite web |url = http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/MapItDrawServlet?geo_id=16000US4209728&_bucket_id=50&tree_id=420&context=saff&_lang=en&_sse=on |title = Bryn Mawr CDP, Pennsylvania (map) |access-date = April 18, 2007 }}{{dead link|date=May 2018 |bot=SheriffIsInTown |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref>

However, the Bryn Mawr [[ZIP Code]] of 19010 covers a larger area. As a result, the geographic term Bryn Mawr is often used in a sense that includes not only the CDP, but also other areas that share the ZIP Code. These other areas include the community of [[Rosemont, Pennsylvania|Rosemont]] within Lower Merion Township and [[Radnor Township, Pennsylvania|Radnor Township]], and various other areas within Lower Merion Township, Radnor Township, and [[Haverford Township, Pennsylvania|Haverford Township]]. Bryn Mawr is a part of the Philadelphia Main Line, a string of picturesque towns located along a railroad that connects Philadelphia with points west. Some other Main Line communities include [[Ardmore, Pennsylvania|Ardmore]], [[Wynnewood, Pennsylvania|Wynnewood]], [[Narberth, Pennsylvania|Narberth]], [[Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania|Bala Cynwyd]] and [[Villanova, Pennsylvania|Villanova]].
