History
Crafton, a hamlet in Mentmore parish, preserves earthworks of a former medieval settlement. Historic England records platforms, hollow ways and closes indicating once-denser occupation linked to open-field agriculture. Like many Chiltern and Vale hamlets, population contracted after medieval peak periods, leaving shrunken outlines and ridge-and-furrow. Crafton's pattern reads as a textbook example of settlement shrinkage around the Mentmore estate.
