Plainfield Town Hall is one of two town halls in Plainfield, New Hampshire. This town hall stands on New Hampshire Route 12A, north of its junction with Daniels Road. The building was built in three phases, the first occurring in 1846, when the Greek Revival main block, a simple rectangular wood frame structure with wooden clapboards, was built.

In 1916 an addition was made to the rear of the building, increasing its size by about 1/3, in which a stage and theatrical facilities were added. This section is particularly notable for the stage backdrop and wings, which are one of only three known examples of such work decorated by the artist Maxfield Parrish, a resident of Plainfield and a participant in the nearby Cornish Art Colony. A shed addition was later added to the rear of the building.[2] This building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]

Governance of Plainfield has traditionally been divided between Plainfield Village and Meriden, where a second 19th-century town hall stands.[2]

The band Okkervil River used the stage as the set of their lyric video for the song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PjLP1n3h7Vc "It Was My Season]."
