Gills Farm Archeological District is a historic district in Randolph, Massachusetts. The district, located in a riverine environment, encompasses a collection of prehistoric archaeological sites dating from the Middle Archaic to the Woodland period. Middle Archaic components include evidence of Neville and Stark projectile points.[1] The quantities of Late Archaic materials found in the area suggest a period of intensive occupation and use. These sites were used as tool workshops, where stone from nearby quarry sites was processed into finished objects, typically bifacial tool blades.[2]

Archaeologist Frederick Carty donated nearly 6,000 artifacts from Gills Farm sites to the Robert S. Peabody Museum of Archaeology in Andover, Massachusetts, in 1995.[3]

The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[4]
