In 2000, we completed the Kentisbury Catalogue, and an Archive was begun to receive and store information regarding all aspects of Kentisbury the buildings, the people, the land, etc. It is important, for future generations, to maintain an ongoing record of the Parish, as well as obtain more information about its past.
Copies of the CD Rom of the Kentisbury Catalogue can now be obtained from Jim Bradley North Patchole Farmhouse, Patchole - email us.
