The Bradford Center Meetinghouse is a historic meetinghouse at 18 Rowe Mountain Road in Bradford, New Hampshire. The Greek Revival church was built in 1838, in response to state legislation mandating the separation of church and state. The town's first meetinghouse, built in 1796, had been used for both religious and civic purposes; it would be dismantled and moved to a location nearer the railroad tracks, where it now serves as the Bradford Town Hall. The new building is a typical rural New England church, a wood frame building resting on a granite foundation. The front facade of the church features a pair of doorways, each flanked by sidelight windows and pilasters supporting an entablature. A single 12/8 window is centered above the doorways, while the side walls each have three 20/20 windows. The tower has a belfry supported by eight columns, and still houses the original 1838 bell. Both the interior and exterior have experienced only relatively modest changes since the building's construction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for Bradford Center Meetinghouse )〕 The meetinghouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.〔 ==See also==
