Lower Dean is a village located in the Borough of Bedford in Bedfordshire, England. Dean is a modernized version of the Anglo-Saxon word "denu," which means "valley."[1]
The village forms part of the Dean and Shelton civil parish (where the 2011 Census population was included), and is close to the county border with Northamptonshire and the district of Huntingdonshire in Cambridgeshire. The village is home to a population of about 200, and it is a popular tourist destination for those interested in the village's medieval past.[citation needed]
Lower Dean includes a Methodist chapel built in 1846, the Manor House Farm of William Strangward, and Dean Hall, an 18th-century brick house with a tile roof and a paneled entrance hall.[2]
