Religion

The village has two chapels and one church. The church of St Lawrence has an unusually wide chancel and windows by William Morris. Of the two chapels, one has been converted into a house and the other is in the process of being converted.

Springs

There are numerous fresh water springs located within the village and at one time this water was bottled and sold. The water can still be drunk or obtained freely from these sources.

Buildings

The village has a single public house, The Greyhound, which dates back to around 1750. It is located roughly in the centre of the village, across the road from the fully converted chapel. There is a village hall. Both the village post office and shop are now closed.
