The Union Meetinghouse or Universalist Church is a historic church building at 97 Amesbury Road in Kensington, New Hampshire. The single story Greek Revival white clapboard structure was built in 1839-40, and occupies a prominent site in the center of Kensington. Its main facade has a pedimented gable and a pair of doorways, each flanked by sidelight windows and topped by an entablature. The church tower has two stages, and is topped by Gothic pinnacles at the corners (a later addition). The building has seen only relatively minor alterations since its construction. It was originally built to serve as a meetinghouse shared by several Protestant congregations, and continues to be used for religious services.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.
