Carpentersville is an unincorporated community located in Pohatcong Township in Warren County, New Jersey, United States.

Carpentersville is located on the east bank of the Delaware River, 6 mi (9.7 km) south of Phillipsburg. Pohatcong Creek flows into the Delaware River south of Carpentersville.

History

The settlement is named for Jacob Carpenter, a Swiss immigrant who settled here in 1748.

Roper's Ferry operated across the Delaware River as early as 1769.

A line of the Pennsylvania Railroad reached Carpentersville in 1854.

By 1882, Carpentersville had saw and grist mills, a post office, and ten lime kilns.

Delaware River Drive, a New Jersey state highway which existed from 1911 to 1916, passed through Carpentersville.

In 1995, the Belvidere and Delaware River Railway began operating a freight railroad between Milford, New Jersey and West Easton, Pennsylvania, with a stop in Carpentersville.
