The Hampstead Meetinghouse, also known as Hampstead Town Hall, is a historic meeting house at 20 Emerson Avenue in Hampstead, New Hampshire. The core of this dual-purpose (religious and civic) structure was begun in 1749, although its interior was not completely finished until about 1768, when its interior walls were finally plastered. The tower was added during renovations in 1793, which also included the construction of a porch. The bell which hangs in the tower was added in 1809; it is the product of a short-lived partnership between Paul Revere, Junior (son of the Revolutionary Paul Revere) and George Holbrook, and may be its only surviving casting. The building ceased to be used for Congregational services in 1837, and in 1856 the gallery level was enclosed, making a full second story, which was set up for theatrical productions.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for Hampstead Meetinghouse )〕 The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.〔 It is one of a relatively small number of well-preserved 18th century New England meeting houses.〔 ==See also==
