Bentley village has evidence of Roman occupation. More recent history includes a connection to the scouting movement after Lord and Lady Baden-Powell moved there in 1918. Read more in the booklet.
The booklet is packed with historical information about churches, schools and contiguous parishes, plus numerous local surnames including those of landowners, priests, farmers, inn keepers and school masters.
