Stratham is a town in Rockingham County, New Hampshire, USA. The population was 6,355 at the 2000 census. It is bounded on the west by the Squamscott River. The town is home to a branch of the New Hampshire Community Technical College. It is the home of the only U.S. Lindt & Sprngli factory and the headquarters of the Timberland Corporation. Stratham was settled in 1631 and incorporated in 1716. The area, called Winnicutt by the Pennacook Indians, was known as Squamscott Patent or Point of Rocks because of its location between Great Bay and the Squamscott River. The sixth town in the colony to be incorporated, the town was named for Wriothesley Russell, Baron Howland of Streatham, a friend of Massachusetts Royal Governor Samuel Shute, when New Hampshire was still a part of that state.
Each summer the town hosts the Stratham Fair, held at Stratham Hill Park.
