This is the site of the first meeting house in
Suncook, incorporated as Pembroke in 1759.
Granted to soldiers in Lovewell's Indian War
(1722-25) or their survivors, the land was
largely settled by Congregationalists from
Massachusetts Bay. Their first meeting house
was "made of Good Hewn Loggs" in 1733. It
measured 24 by 30 feet and housed town
meetings and religious services. The building
was improved in 1735 with seats, window glass,
and a pulpit. In 1746, it was replaced by a
two-story framed building, which was moved
around 1806 and converted to the barn standing
to the northwest.
