Dist:0.4km<br/>This is an attractive village but it seems to be losing its facilities. The building on the right is the old post office. The Travellers Rest is now boarded up. Further down the road, the village stores have shut and the building has just been sold.

Weather vanes have a rich and long history, with examples dating to ancient Greece and Rome.
