The Village Hall, was previously the Village School until its last intake of pupils in the early 1950s.[4]
Governance
The parish council has responsibility for local issues, including setting an annual precept (local rate) to cover the council's operating costs and producing annual accounts for public scrutiny. The parish council evaluates local planning applications and works with the local police, district council officers, and neighbourhood watch groups on matters of crime, security, and traffic. The parish council's role also includes initiating projects for the maintenance and repair of parish facilities, as well as consulting with the district council on the maintenance, repair, and improvement of highways, drainage, footpaths, public transport, and street cleaning. Conservation matters (including trees and listed buildings) and environmental issues are also the responsibility of the council.
The Church of St Bartholomew dates from 1854 and has been designated as a Grade II listed building.[6] Its chancel retains monuments to the Webers and Moseys, eminent families in the history of the village.
