The Round Hill Historic District is a historic district in the town of Greenwich, Connecticut. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.[1]

The district is an 8 acres (3.2 ha) area which, in 1996, included 7 buildings that contributed to the historic character of the district and one other contributing site.

It includes part of the modern-day Round Hill neighborhood of Greenwich, and is centered on the First Church of Round Hill, built in 1828 and extensively altered about a century later. The adjacent church parsonage, the Brown-Kenworthy House, is one of the oldest houses in the area, with a wing built c. 1728.

Other contributing properties in the district include:[2]
