The hamlet has a pub/restaurant, The Green Man, which also provides accommodation. It has served since the hamlet grew in the early 19th century, but may also be the same inn with stabling for 22 horses that was reported in 1686.

There was at one time a small school, reopened as a community centre in 1975. Christian services were held in the village's school from the 1890s to the 1920s. The brick-and-flint mission church of St George was built in 1933.
