The Newington Railroad Depot is a historic railroad station on Bloody Point Road in Newington, New Hampshire. The two story wood frame building was constructed in 1873 by the Dover and Portsmouth Railroad to provide passenger and freight services, and to provide housing for the stationmaster. This type of depot, integrating all of the functions and providing housing, was generally rare, and this surviving example is particularly well preserved.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.[1]
