Between 1736 and 1738, Robert Owings was assigned to “cut a new road as Christopher Gist had marked it” south from Conewago (now Hanover, Pennsylvania) to a point about halfway to Fort Garrison in Baltimore County. The village of Spring Garden became a stage-line stop on the new road and later became the town of Hampstead
The town was incorporated in 1888 and since then has developed from a farming community to a modern town.
Hampstead School was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. Once defunct and derelict, it was rehabilitated and is now The Residences at Hampstead School, a retirement facility.
