Background
History
The village is included in the Domesday Book under its old name Bere, which is from the Old English for pasture or possibly grove. The second part of the name comes from Godfrey de Craucombe (of Crowcombe) who was the lord of the manor in 1227. From 1402 John Harwell was the Lord of the manor. Beer Crocombe was part of the hundred of Abdick and Bulstone. From 1746 to 1751 the preacher John Wesley was a frequent visitor to the village.
