The Village At Present
The port now provides a centre for pleasure boating and sailing, it has moorings, a marina and a well-developed accompaniment of yacht support businesses, including rigging, sail making and boatyards. The village also has holiday accommodation. The local sailing club is very active, with dinghy racing held on Saturday afternoons, and Wednesday and Friday evenings. A by-pass constructed in 1993/4 has removed much of the traffic that congested the main street for many years.
