The Bedford Village Historic District is a national historic district in Bedford, Westchester County, New York, encompassing most of the original 1680 hamlet in a typical village green plan. It contains 80 contributing buildings and one contributing site, with examples of the Greek Revival and Gothic Revival styles, including the court house (1787), library (1807), school house (1829), post office (c. 1838), and Presbyterian Church (1872). Bedford alternated with White Plains as one of two county seats from 1788 to 1870, and because the railroad bypassed it in the 1840s, it avoided the industrialization that destroyed historic buildings in many other Westchester localities.
