Ridley Creek

Ridley Creek

Ridley Creek is a tributary of the Delaware River in southeast Pennsylvania in the United States.

It rises between Malvern and Frazer in Chester County. It flows south, then southeast to enter Delaware County and Ridley Creek State Park. Leaving the park, it passes the Tyler Arboretum and the town of Media, entering a deep gorge. Ridley Creek joins the tidal Delaware River near Chester.
