The borough of Chester Heights was formerly part of Aston Township. The northwestern portion of the township, who were against a proposed tax hike,
seceded from the township and formed the borough of Chester Heights. It was incorporated in 1945. There are houses in the borough dating to 1720,
though most of the oldest were built in 1777 when a hoard of men, lost from the rest of the Colonial army after the Battle of Brandywine joined together
to form the community of Logtown, in present-day Chester Heights.
