Hampstead: A Rockingham County Town Between the Lakes and the Coast
Hampstead is a town of about 8,700 residents in central Rockingham County, situated between Sandown, Atkinson, Plaistow, and Derry. It was incorporated in 1749, carved out of Haverhill District land that had been contested between the Massachusetts and New Hampshire colonies. The town is named after the London borough of Hampstead, a naming pattern typical of colonial New Hampshire charters.
The town sits on a relatively high ridge that supplies the headwaters for several small brooks, and it contains Wash Pond, Sunset Lake, Island Pond, and the eastern shore of Big Island Pond. These water bodies have supported cottage communities since the nineteenth century, and several of them retain summer camp and youth group uses. The Hampstead Historical Society operates the 1745 meeting house and several other early buildings as museums.
Most of Hampstead's population is residential, commuting to Manchester, Nashua, Lawrence, Massachusetts, or the Seacoast. The Pinkerton Academy attendance zone extends into Hampstead, so many local high school students attend Pinkerton in Derry rather than a Hampstead municipal high school. Commercial activity is concentrated along Route 111 and Route 121A, which cross near the town center.
