Glenays
Glenays, also known as Leighton House, is a historic home located in Radnor Township, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. The property was purchased by Richard Roger Montgomery and his wife Elisabeth Binney Montgomery in 1859. It is a three-story, stucco over stone Italian Villa style dwelling built in three sections. The first section was built in 1859, with additions built in the late-19th century and 1925. The 1925 addition and garden walls (1928) were designed by architect George Howe (1886–1955).For many years, the estate was the home of Archibald R. Montgomery and later, the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Biddle. In 1974, it was used as the "Designers' Show House" by the Philadelphia Vassar Club to benefit their scholarship fund. As of 2017, it was abandoned and in a state of disrepair. As of 2021 the land has been subdivided to build new houses. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.
