The village main street features a small privately owned church, constructed of corrugated steel sheeting and a village public house, named "The Bull Inn".
The entrance to the village was previously dominated by Dale Power Solutions generator manufacturing plant. Established in 1935 by Leonard Dale, it provided standby power services and products for a wide range of applications. The plant was demolished in late 2019 and in early 2020 a new housing development was begun. (This is still in the early construction stage, May 2020)
