Quaker Meeting House

I date all the way back to 1701, when I was built as a Quaker Meeting House. In fact, I am said to be the second oldest Quaker Meeting House that still exists in the entire country. I was moved from my Seabrook location next to the Elmwood Cemetery to Mill Lane in Hampton Falls in 1818 and moved again in 1968 – after being purchased at auction for $300 from the Town of Seabrook - to where you see me now.
As you look at my front, you’re really looking at what was originally the back of the Quaker Meeting House. You might say I got completely turned around in the move to Brown Road!  But so much remains of my original features - four huge fireplaces with hand-hewn mantles that are still functional, along with a working beehive oven. After all these years, I remain a classic example of a center chimney cape with post and beam construction, wide interior floor and wall boards, pine doors, and rustic beams that have stood the test of time – exemplifying both the functional and beautiful craftsmanship of a bygone era.
