The medieval church is close by where one of the earliest games of fives was recorded. Elsewhere in the village is the 17th Century Red Lion, an excellent pub and restaurant and also village hall, tennis courts and playground. Access to the A37 and A303 within a few miles drive. Glastonbury, Wells, Castle Cary and Sherborne are all within a short drive as are Castle Cary and Yeovil Rail Stations with main lines to London.
