Pillsbury Memorial Hall, located at 93 Main Street, is the town hall of Sutton, New Hampshire. The two story masonry building was built in 1891, funded by a gift from New Hampshire native John Sargent Pillsbury, founder of the Pillsbury Company and a leading Minnesota politician. It is the only Romanesque style town hall building in Merrimack County. The main hall of the building, where town meetings are held, is a single story element at its rear. The front of the building rises two floors, with a rounded turret section on the right and an entry sheltered by a deep porch and framed by a round arch on the left.[2]
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1]
