Bentley Crewe, located on the outskirts of Crewe, Cheshire, England, is the headquarters and design and manufacturing center of Bentley Motors Limited. ==History== In preparation for war, Rolls Royce and the British Government searched for a location for a shadow factory to ensure production of aero-engines.〔Pugh 2000, pp. 192-198.〕 Crewe, with its excellent road and rail links, as well as being located in the northwest away from the aerial bombing starting in mainland Europe, was a logical choice. Crewe also had extensive open farming land. Construction of the factory started on a 60-acre area on the potato fields of Merrill's Farm in July 1938, with the first Rolls Royce Merlin aero-engine rolling off the production line five months later. 25,000 Merlin engines were produced and at its peak, in 1943 during World War II, the factory employed 10,000 people.
