There are many pleasant walks in the area. The Hungerford Arms is an agreeable local pub, with three local beers and a small but select menu. There is a spot on the river Frome which is used by what is claimed to be the only river swimming club still active in Britain.

Famous quotes containing the word village:
“Let us have a good many maples and hickories and scarlet oaks, then, I say. Blaze away! Shall that dirty roll of bunting in the gun-house be all the colors a village can display? A village is not complete, unless it have these trees to mark the season in it. They are important, like the town clock. A village that has them not will not be found to work well. It has a screw loose, an essential part is wanting.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
