Description

Bentworth is an historic village and large civil parish in the East Hampshire district of Hampshire, England. The nearest town is Alton, which lies about 3 miles east of the village. The parish covers an area of 3,763 acres and at its highest point is King's Hill, 716 feet above sea level. According to the 2011 census, Bentworth had a population of 553. It lies on the edge of the East Hampshire Hangers.

The village has a long history, as shown by the number and range of its heritage-listed buildings. Bronze Age and Roman remains have been found in the area and there is evidence of an Anglo-Saxon church in the village. The manor of Bentworth was not named in the Domesday Survey of 1086, but it was part of the Odiham Hundred. Land ownership of the village was passed by several English kings until the late Elizabethan era. During the Second World War, Bentworth Hall was requisitioned as an outstation for the Royal Navy and nearby Thedden Grange was used as a prisoner of war camp.
