Knollwood is an historic summer estate house on Windmill Hill Road in Dublin, New Hampshire. The large 2 1/2 story "summer cottage" was designed by Shepley, Rutan and Coolidge and built in 1899-1900 for banker Franklin MacVeagh. While MacVeagh was United States Secretary of the Treasury (1909–13), he twice hosted President William Howard Taft at Knollwood. One of Dublin's major summer estate house, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
