Features
The village has three churches, a first school, a post office, two local shops, a pharmacy and two pubs. Each Friday a mobile 'chippy van' used to serve fish and chips from about 4:30-6pm outside the local shops. This has been replaced by a fish and chip shop. The Rose and Crown often has live music with a number of Irish bands performing on a regular basis.
Next to the local village hall there is a park where many different events such as fund-raising events are held. One of the more significant and popular of these is 'Rock on The Rocks', an outdoor music event held each summer.
Just out of the village to the south is an unusual and attractive rocky outcrop, 'Rock End', with views to the southwest.

Famous quotes containing the word features:
“All visible objects, man, are but as pasteboard masks. But in each event—in the living act, the undoubted deed—there, some unknown but still reasoning thing puts forth the mouldings of its features from behind the unreasoning mask. If man will strike, strike through the mask!”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“These, then, will be some of the features of democracy ... it will be, in all likelihood, an agreeable, lawless, particolored commonwealth, dealing with all alike on a footing of equality, whether they be really equal or not.”
—Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
“Art is the child of Nature; yes,
Her darling child, in whom we trace
The features of the mother’s face,
Her aspect and her attitude.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
