The Center Meetinghouse is a historic meetinghouse on NH 103 in Newbury, New Hampshire. The Federal-style church building was built c. 1832, a relatively late date for the style. It replaced a 1797 meetinghouse that had been located about a mile away. It is further believed to be distinctive in New Hampshire as the only church in which the pulpit is located at the rear of the auditorium.[2] Originally built to be used by multiple religious denominations, it is now operated by a local nonprofit organization as a community center.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
