Kelley's Corner School On The State Register Of Historic Places

The Kelley's Corner School in Lower Gilmanton has
been listed on the New Hampshire State Register of Historic Places.
To celebrate, and introduce friends and neighbors to this treasure
of Gilmanton history, the Lower Gilmanton Community Club will host a
pot luck supper on Saturday evening, June 28th at 6 pm.
Located on Sanborn Hill Road, just off Route 129
south of the junction with Route 107, Kelley School is the Town's
last one-room school still in public ownership. It was authorized by
Town meeting in 1778 as School #1, and continued as a school into
the 1940s. Since 1950 it has been maintained by the Lower Gilmanton
Community Club and used for community gatherings from time to time.
The Club is eager to introduce neighbors to this
special gem in the community and to encourage participation in the
work to preserve it. The roof needs replacement and other repairs
will soon be needed.
Bring a dish to share on June 28th,
learn more about the history of Kelley's Corner School and meet
friends and neighbors in the Lower Gilmanton Community. For more
information call Nancy Potter at 364-2731.
