The Perkiomen Bridge Hotel, also known as Lane's Hotel, ^[2] is a historic, American hotel complex that is located adjacent to the Perkiomen Bridge in Collegeville, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. ^[1]

History and architectural features

The original building was built circa 1706 ^[3] (some sources say 1689 ^[4] ), with later expansions undertaken during the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. It consists of a three-story, six-bay, gable-roofed, stuccoed, brownstone building that was erected circa 1800 with two-story porches and a low, gable-roofed wing that is likely the oldest portion of the structure. Attached to this is a low, one-story, kitchen wing and enclosed porch that dates to circa 1930. ^[3] The building was auctioned in 2010. ^[4]
