History

The land that is now Scarsdale was first settled in 1660 by John Richbell. In 1702, Caleb Heathcote bought the land and created the Manor of Scarsdale, comprising 6,000 acres. The name Scarsdale reminded Heathcote of Scarsdale in Derbyshire, England. During the battles of the American Revolution, the British and Continental armies passed through the Manor of Scarsdale.
 
Shortly thereafter, as the New York State government was being formed, the Manor became the Town of Scarsdale by an act of the Legislature on March 7, 1778. Scarsdale’s first “town meeting” was held in 1783, and on March 7, 1788, Scarsdale became a “Town” by law.
