*************
Kents Bank is a small village in Cumbria, England, so named for its proximity to the River Kent estuary. Part of the historic County Palatine of Lancashire, it is located two miles south-west of Grange-over-Sands. Kents Bank has only one small shop which serves the small community
Kents Bank takes its name from the River Kent which once ran close to the village. Kents Bank railway station opened in 1857. Abbot Hall and an inn existed close to the shore where the cross-sand route over Morecambe Bay from Lancaster met the land. Abbot Hall was the poor house for the area until 1822 and a building is reputed to have existed here since the 12th century.[1] Expansion of the settlement started around 1870 and at least three private schools were established in the hamlet. Further expansion continued over the years.
