History of the Village
Portrait of a Parish
- As a Millennium project, the Women's
Institute (W.I.) compiled a book called
"Portrait of a Parish". With input from
residents past and present - it describes
the last 100 years of Monkton Combe. A must
to read!

name plaque was added to the bridge in
2012.
