The Woodstock Hill Historic District is a historic district encompassing the historic village center of Woodstock, Connecticut. It is centered on the Woodstock Green, extending south from there toward the junction of Connecticut Route 169 and Plaine Hill Road. Major buildings in the district include the 1821 Congregational Church, the buildings of Woodstock Academy (of which its 1873 classroom building stands overlooking Woodstock Green), and Roseland Cottage, a National Historic Landmark that is one of the nation's finest Gothic Revival summer houses.[2]

The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.[1]
