Lots of excellent glass inside by the Maille workshop of Canterbury.
EC Lee is best known for the Arts and Crafts church of St Thomas at
Brentwood a couple of miles off, but here he seems to have enjoyed
himself a bit more.
Bentley was carved out of South Weald parish, which until the 1870s also included the entire town of Brentwood.

Open. A grand late 19th century extravaganza by EC Lee, with a great
urban spire, quite out of scale with the village. Naughty, but in the
right spirit, as someone once said of somewhere else.
