Exeter's historic Town House stood near this site. Here on January 5, 1776, the Provincial Congress adopted and signed the first state constitution, thereby establishing an independent state government, the first of the thirteen colonies. The newly created legislative Assembly met here during the Revolution. The Town House remained in use until replaced by a new structure in 1793.
