The new district has a pond, primary school, day nursery, community centre, church, public house and supermarket. About 20 acres (8.1 ha) of the heath was retained and is described as a nature reserve. The nature reserve is managed by Hart District Council, with the intent to move it back to typical heathland, with some marsh areas. The area supports species including slow-worms, lizards, and dragonflies. Rare breed cattle graze in the nature reserve during the summer and autumn.

Famous quotes containing the word attractions:
“The world,—this shadow of the soul, or other me, lies wide around. Its attractions are the keys which unlock my thoughts and make me acquainted with myself. I run eagerly into this resounding tumult. I grasp the hands of those next to me, and take my place in the ring to suffer and to work, taught by an instinct, that so shall the dumb abyss be vocal with speech.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Fantasy love is much better than reality love. Never doing it is very exciting. The most exciting attractions are between two opposites that never meet.”
—Andy Warhol (1928–1987)
