Inscription.
Built in 1889, the Grasmere Town Hall was designed by noted Manchester architect William W. Ireland, who created it in the Queen Anne style popular at the time. It was built not only as a meeting hall but also a school (Schoolhouse #9). For many years, it was known as the Grange because the Goffstown Junior Grange met here, but it has also served as a meeting place for dozens of other community groups, a district court, and even a dinner theater. It was placed in a local historic district in 1986. In 1990, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. This building stands where the town's original meetinghouse once stood.
