The North Hampton Town Hall is located at 231 Atlantic Avenue in North Hampton, New Hampshire. It is a single-story white clapboarded building with a two-stage tower whose belfry contains a Revere bell cast in 1815. The tower's pyramidal roof and clock were added in 1920. The transitional Federal-Greek Revival structure was built in 1844 to serve the town's municipal needs, a function it continues to serve today. In addition to the bell, which originally hung in the town's second meetinghouse, the building includes timbers from meetinghouses built 1734 and 1761.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.
