Stevens Memorial Hall is the town hall of Chester, New Hampshire. The building, a large wood frame structure completed in 1910, is located in the center of Chester at the junction of New Hampshire Routes 121 and 102. Designed by Lawrence, Massachusetts, architect George G. Adams, it is basically vernacular Colonial Revival in style. The building houses town offices, and has at times also housed the public library. Its upper floor consists of a large auditorium space used for civic and social functions, with a stage, dressing room, and balcony.[2]
