Being born and raised in Vermont from what I know that would be a town/city municipal code thing that would keep you from doing so. I know New Hampshire Passed a Law stating only the state has the power to say where you can and cant carry a firearm (RSA 159.26) "159:26 Firearms and Ammunition; Authority of the State. –
I. To the extent consistent with federal law, the state of New Hampshire shall have authority and jurisdiction over the sale, purchase, ownership, use, possession, transportation, licensing, permitting, taxation, or other matter pertaining to firearms, firearms components, ammunition, or firearms supplies in the state. Except as otherwise specifically provided by statute, no ordinance or regulation of a political subdivision may regulate the sale, purchase, ownership, use, possession, transportation, licensing, permitting, taxation, or other matter pertaining to firearms, firearms components, ammunition, or firearms supplies in the state. Nothing in this section shall be construed as affecting a political subdivision's right to adopt zoning ordinances for the purpose of regulating firearms businesses in the same manner as other businesses or to take any action allowed under RSA 207:59.
II. Upon the effective date of this section, all municipal ordinances and regulations not authorized under paragraph I relative to the sale, purchase, ownership, use, possession, transportation, licensing, permitting, taxation, or other matter pertaining to firearms, firearm components, ammunition, or firearms supplies shall be null and void.

As you can see and read from that law any and all city/town ordinances that had been in fact keeping you from carrying OC/CC in the town/city became void. I remember reading a law on Vermont books that said for the most part the same thing. I will try and find it for you and post it. On another note if the court house is in city hall it becomes a gray area as state law in VT and NH say no firearms in the building. I have been told if the court has it's own entrance and exit and city hall has it's own then you can. But I have not tried it as of yet Claremont,NH city hall and court and police department are all in one huge building. Not sure how it would play out if someone was to carry into the building. Also keep in mind some police departments are posted as gun free zones.
