Village Life
Teversham has a well-reputed primary school, a parish church, a Victorian chapel, Conservative Club, a recreation ground and Indian restaurant. Children initially attend primary school in the village and usually then go on to Bottisham Village College.
The village's only pub, the Rose and Crown, situated in the main intersection on the High Street closed down and remained vacant until summer 2008 when it underwent full refurbishment as a restaurant. Teversham has been criticised for its lack of shops and other useful facilities, which only became worse as of 2002 when the Post Office closed down, causing an uproar from the Teversham Community of Old-Age Pensioners and Mothers.

Famous quotes containing the words village and/or life:
“In Canada an ordinary New England house would be mistaken for the château, and while every village here contains at least several gentlemen or “squires,” there is but one to a seigniory.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“But that beginning was wiped out in fear
The day I swung suspended with the grapes,
And was come after like Eurydice
And brought down safely from the upper regions;
And the life I live now’s an extra life
I can waste as I please on whom I please.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
