Mount Joy (Whitemarsh, Pennsylvania)
Mount Joy, also known as the Peter Legaux Mansion, is a historic house in the Spring Mill section of Whitemarsh Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.
It was built about 1735 by Anthony Morris for his son John, and is a 2 1/2-story, five bay, stone dwelling with a gambrel roof. It has 10 fireplaces, some with iron firebacks.
Peter Legaux was the owner of "Spring Mill," a nearby gristmill that was in operation by 1704. The mill burned in 1967, and its stone ruins were demolished.
Mount Joy was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.
