The village green covers some 43 acres (170,000 m²) and is reputed to be one of the largest in England.
The village green was the site of a steam mill which was built in 1886.
The mill chimney was demolished in 1925, and what remains of the structure today has been converted into apartments.
Adjacent to the mill was a large pond which no longer exists, and a handful of willow trees mark the spot.
To the north of the mill is a children's play area and a small nature reserve containing various species of grasses that can only be found in the local area.
To the east of this is the old mill house where a windmill once stood within the walled gardens of the house, but this was also demolished in the late 19th century.

The green has long been used for various recreational and sporting events.
In Edwardian times, it was used as a golf course, and today the local cricket and football teams can often be seen playing matches.
During the last weekend of August, the green has provided the venue for Great Bentley Village Carnival and Fete every year since 1974.
In recent years, the Green has also become popular with motorcyclists from around the country.
During the summer months, the Green becomes the site of a mini motorcycle rally on Wednesday evenings.
