The village is set around a village green, and includes the Church of England parish church of St John the Evangelist (built in 1893), The Cricketers public house, village hall and parish school (now private). It also includes Redroofs, the house where Ivor Novello lived and where he composed many of his most famous works.[1]
Recently the village, and surrounding areas, have been the film locations for five episodes of the popular TV series Midsomer Murders.[2]
