Mill Hill is a historic neighborhood in the downtown area of Trenton, Mercer County, New Jersey. It was originally part of Nottingham Township in Burlington County since the colonial era. Mill Hill was near Trenton, but was not part of the city until 1851. Historical records from the early 19th century typically refer to the area as "Mill-Hill, near Trenton."
In 1838, when Mercer County was first established, Nottingham Township became part of Mercer. The county courthouse was built at Broad and Market Streets in the Mill Hill section of the township, and thus Mill Hill was considered the county seat of the new Mercer County. By 1851, Mill Hill became part of Trenton. - Locality
