Welcome to Barnstead!

Barnstead Town Hall

In an abundance of caution, the Town Offices have been closed due to positive COVID-19 tests. Refer to information below regarding meetings and vehicle registrations.

We have miles of snowmobile trails for those who enjoy the snow; wonderful clear lakes and streams for the fishing or boating Altonenthusiast, activities and games for the kids and canoes and kayaks for those times when you just want to glide down a river.

If you are in need of a service, the navigation on the left will allow you to find just what you are looking for, along with contact names and numbers to reach the appropriate party.
