The Joseph Gowing Farm is a historic farmhouse on Page Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The two story hip-roofed wood frame house was built in 1908, reconstructing c. 1793 farmhouse that was destroyed by fire. It was built by Louis Cabot, an industrialist who owned a large gentleman's farm, of which this house was occupied by his farm manager. The structure is technically Georgian Revival, as it is a reconstruction, but it is supposedly faithful to the original, which had added Federal style details, including corner pilasters and a bracketed cornice. The original house, in addition to its association with the locally prominent Gowing family, was also owned by Governor Samuel Hale before coming into the Cabot farm.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
