RADNOR TWP.—A residential development for 311 acres of the Ardrossan Estate could have as many as 76 new houses on it.

On Monday, Radnor Township’s Planning Commission heard a proposal from Edgar “Eddie” Scott III, the grandson of Hope Montgomery Scott and a principle of a company proposing to buy most of the land that runs along Newtown and Darby-Paoli roads in Villanova.

Scott will also be filing a Conditional Use application for the 44 acres on the other side of Darby-Paoli Road later this week.
