The Meetinghouse is a historic house on Monument Square in Hollis, New Hampshire. The oldest portion of this 2-1/2 story wood frame house was built c. 1746, and is a rare regional example of a Georgian saltbox-style house. This portion of the house faces Cleasby Lane, and is two rooms deep on the first floor and one room deep on the second. A second block, oriented to face Monument Square, was attached to this house in the 18th century, as were smaller additions to its east side. A number of alterations have been made to the house, notably the addition of bay windows to the western facade, part of an adaptation of the structure for retail uses.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
