St. John's church and The Cleave, a popular pub set in a 15th-century thatched building, are at the very heart of the village. There is also a superb general store and post office known as The Dairy, a tea room, village hall, preschool and a community orchard with a playground. The village, situated in the heart of the Wrey Valley, has long been a popular hot spot for walkers and those who are seeking a quintessentially British village.
