Settled in 1719 by Scottish immigrants seeking religious freedom, the Town of Windham was originally home to the Pawtucket Indians. By the year 1741, a small fraction of the original settlers had petitioned for a charter to form a separate community whose bounds included 27.2 square miles of land and water. In 1742, Governor Benning Wentworth granted their request and the Town of Windham was incorporated.

The original band of dedicated individuals, primarily farmers and millworkers, worked diligently to create the rural oasis which Windham has become, and there are still several pieces of their history which remain. While not inclusive, some of the historic sites within the town include:  the Searles School, which has undergone extensive restoration, and though not completed, is currently being rented for functions; the Searles Castle, owned and renovated by the Sisters of Mercy, which is also available for functions; and the original "Town Center,” the location of the Town Hall, Planning Department, Senior Center, Bartley House and the Armstrong Memorial Building, the latter of which houses the Town's museum.
