==History==
{{More citations needed|section|date=September 2022}}
Yardley was founded by [[William Yardley]], who emigrated to America in July 1682 with his family. He made an agreement with [[William Penn]], before leaving England, to buy {{convert|500|acre|km2}} for ten pounds. A survey was completed in October 1682, and the area William Yardley settled was called "Prospect Farm." It was located just outside the present Yardley Borough. William Yardley died in 1693, and his family in 1702–1703, possibly of [[smallpox]]. The family's burial plots are located in [[Slate Hill Cemetery]], one of the oldest Quaker burial grounds in the state.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zpxq95NLy90 Video], youtube.com. Accessed September 15, 2022.</ref>

A nephew, Thomas Yardley, came to America in 1704 to settle the estate and never returned to England. He opened a ferry line which started operating in 1710 from Letchworth Avenue, the lower boundary of the village, and landed in [[New Jersey]] further downstream. This was an important link between West Jersey and the three roads leading to [[Philadelphia]] by way of Falls, Langhorne and Newtown. The Yardley family occupied the land for more than 150 years.
When Yardley was founded there were already small settlements at nearby Burlington, Bristol, and Falls Ferry.

Yardley began to develop into a village about 1807, and by 1880 had a population of 820. Early industries included a spoke and handle factory, sawmill, felloe factory, plate and plaster mill, and two flour mills. The first post office, established in 1828, used the name "Yardleyville." The name became "Yardley" again at the time the [[Reading Company|Reading Railroad]] came through the area in 1876.

During the [[American Civil War]], Yardley was a station for the [[Underground Railroad]], an escape route for slaves. Known hiding places were under the eaves of the Continental Hotel (now the Continental Tavern), in bins of warehouses on the Delaware Canal (completed in 1862), and at the General Store (now Worthington Insurance). At Lakeside, the yellow house facing Lake Afton on N. Main Street, one brick-walled cellar room is also thought to have been a hiding place.

The borough of Yardley was incorporated on March 4, 1895.

The [[Train Collectors Association]] was founded in Yardley in 1954.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.tcatrains.org/about-tca/|title=About TCA|website=tcatrains.org|access-date=August 9, 2023}}</ref>

As of 2014 there were {{convert|10.64|mi}} of public roads in Yardley, of which {{convert|3.74|mi}} were maintained by the [[Pennsylvania Department of Transportation]] (PennDOT) and {{convert|6.90|mi}} were maintained by the borough.<ref name=PennDOTmap>{{cite web|url=https://gis.penndot.gov/BPR_pdf_files/Maps/Type5/09422.pdf|title=Yardley Borough map|publisher=PennDOT|access-date=March 11, 2023}}</ref>

[[Pennsylvania Route 32]] runs through Yardley adjacent to the Delaware River, heading south to [[Morrisville, Bucks County, Pennsylvania|Morrisville]] and north to [[New Hope, Pennsylvania|New Hope]] and beyond and is a scenic byway.

[[File:SEPTA Silverliner IV 406 at Yardley station.jpeg|thumb|right|A SEPTA Regional Rail train on the West Trenton Line stops at the Yardley station]]
The [[Philadelphia]] to [[Bound Brook, New Jersey]], two-track main line of the [[Philadelphia and Reading Railroad]] passed through and stopped at Yardley; it crossed the [[Delaware River]] on a still standing massive stone viaduct called the [[West Trenton Railroad Bridge]]. This line now is [[SEPTA Regional Rail]]'s [[West Trenton Line (SEPTA)|West Trenton Line]] and operates also as a [[CSX]] freight line called the [[Trenton Subdivision (CSX Transportation)|Trenton Subdivision]].

SEPTA trains along the West Trenton Line stop at the [[Yardley station]]. Prior to the 1950s, the [[Baltimore and Ohio Railroad]]'s [[New York City]]-bound trains from [[Washington, D.C.]], (Royal Blue, Capitol Limited, National Limited, Ambassador, and others) used the Reading's trackage to Bound Brook as did the Reading's Crusader.
