Deering, New Hampshire Situated in northern Hillsborough County in the beautiful state of New Hampshire, the small town of Deering is a quiet bedroom community of about 2000 people. Many of this charming town’s residents commute to work in nearby Manchester and return to the little slice of heaven that is Deering, NH. Walking the winding country roads through thickly wooded neighborhoods conjures up images of yesteryear, when everything seemed so much simpler. Deering’s beginnings were relatively uneventful. Originating from part of a 17th century land grant, the town lines were formed using six unsettled lots owned by a Portsmouth investor group. The town was incorporated in 1774 by colonial governor John Wentworth and named for his wife, Frances Deering Wentworth. Farming was the only industry in Deering since the town was not located near a fast-moving water supply and could not build mills. The farms could, however, supply wool to the neighboring mill towns of the Contoocook River and did so for over 100 years. Eventually the topsoil played out and many farms failed, decreasing the population substantially in the late 1800’s through mid 1900’s. After World War II, and with more families owning automobiles, Deering started attracted residents who worked in the city but wanted to live in the country. Deering remains a quaint bedroom community to this day. Peace and quiet is the order of the day in Deering. If you’re looking for non-stop excitement, Deering is not the place for you.
