[edit] Brief history

The village has a butter cross which was restored in 1937. Unusually the village can only be approached from one direction via a road/piece of land that is twenty metres wide. This land was created as a result of an Enclosure in 1773. The route of the road changed slightly as a result of the church's construction in 1847.^[1]
