The main feature of the village is St Michael's church, built between 1922 and 1927. It was designed by the architect William A Scott and completed under the supervision of R M Butler of University College Dublin. The Monaghan Gaelic Athletic Association Training & Development Centre, is located nearby at Cloghan.
Since November 2007 the village has been by-passed by the Castleblayney to Clontibret by-pass, but the church and village are visible from the highway.
