The Republican Club House stood at 13 Elm Street (now Old Elm Street) in North Billerica, near the Talbot Mills. It was built in 1894 as the meeting house of the Billerica Republican Club, a political club of the mill village, and a photograph of it was taken in October 1903.

The directories of 1941 and 1942 still list the Billerica Republican Club at 13 Elm Street. By 1949 the building was the home of the Billerica Social Club, listed there in 1949 and 1951. In the 1950s it housed the Alice Elden Dance Studio, which advertised in the Howe High School yearbook of 1954 ("The Alice Elden Dance Studio, 13 Elm St., North Billerica, Tel. Billerica 8294") and was listed among the dancing schools and teachers of the 1957 directory. The building was razed in the 1960s, and its site is now a parking lot.
