History

The town was incorporated as Whitehall in 1855, named in homage to the 1741 home of planter William Whitefield. In December 1862, during the American Civil War, a battle was fought near the town. In 1881 the community was reincorporated as White Hall. That year a hotel and resort opened to bring customers to seven mineral springs in the town’s vicinity. The resort closed in 1944. In 1951 the town was renamed Seven Springs. Seven Springs’ population peaked in 1960 with 207 residents. In 1999 the Neuse River flooded during Hurricane Floyd, causing the town’s population to halve. Hurricane Matthew in 2016 and Hurricane Florence in 2018 led to further decline; by 2020, the town had only 55 residents, and many of the businesses on the principal street in the community were left abandoned.
