Millsfield is a township in Coös County, New Hampshire, United States. It is part of the Berlin, NH-VT Micropolitan Statistical Area. The population was 25 at the 2020 census.
In New Hampshire, locations, grants, townships, which are different from towns, and purchases are unincorporated portions of a county, which are not part of any town and have limited self-government, if any, as many are uninhabited.




History


In 1774, Millsfield was granted to George Boyd and others and contained about 23,200 acres (94 km2). It was named in honor of Sir Thomas Mills. In 1952, Millsfield was organized for voting purposes.




Geography


The township has a total area of 45.2 square miles (117.1 km2), of which 44.8 square miles (116.1 km2) are land and 0.4 square miles (1.0 km2), or 0.89%, are water. Millsfield Pond is in the center of the township. The outlet, Millsfield Pond Brook, flows northeastward to Clear Stream at the eastern boundary of the township. Clear Stream, which crosses the northeastern corner of the township, is an eastward-flowing tributary of the Androscoggin River.
The southeastern part of the township drains to the Androscoggin River, via Newell Brook and the outlet of Moose Pond. The southwestern part of the township is drained by Phillips Brook, a southward-flowing tributary of the Upper Ammonoosuc River and part of the Connecticut River watershed.
New Hampshire Route 26 crosses the northeastern part of Millsfield, following Clear Stream. To the northwest, it leads over Dixville Notch to Colebrook, while to the southeast it leads into Errol and then continues to the Maine border. Millsfield has the only road that leads to Erving's Location, an uninhabited township. The road goes to the north of Mount Kelsey, the highest point in Millsfield at 3,472 feet (1,058 m) above sea level.
