About the village
The village shop is a Post Office, general store and newsagents. There is also a primary school, a Church of England church (St Peter and St Paul),[1][2] Methodist chapel,[3][4] and a public house, The Fox and Hounds Inn.
The village shares its village hall with neighbouring Cherry Willingham, and Priory Pembroke Academy in that village is the local secondary school. There is a cricket club in the village.[5]
Although the centre of the village contains very old properties there has been expansion in recent years and in-fill with new houses and bungalows.
