Claremont, NH - Old Sparky Gets a Makeover
Welcome to Claremont, NH! Settled in 1762, Claremont was named after the country mansion of Thomas Pelham-Holles, Earl of Clare. Claremont is bordered on the west by the Connecticut River, which serves as the boundary between New Hampshire and Vermont. This quaint city is home to the Union Episcopal Church, the oldest surviving church building in New Hampshire. It was also home to the first Roman Catholic church in New Hampshire. Claremont was once home to actress and singer Dorothy Loudon, who won a Tony Award in 1977 for her performance as Miss Hannigan in Annie.
