The parish church of St Bartholomew is Norman, rebuilt in the Perpendicular style, with "unbridled curvilinear tracery" in the chancel windows [Pevsner, Nikolaus. 1979. "The Buildings of England:Nottinghamshire". page 343.Harmondsworth, Middx. Penguin.] . The village has a primary school and a village shop. It borders the village of Barnby Moor which is about 1 mile away and is also very close to the village of Lound. The village has a number of public footpaths and walks such as those on Mire Hill.

The village sometimes has traffic problems caused by the Level crossing on Station Road which leads to Barnby Moor, The crossing goes over the East Coast Main Line which is a very busy railway line.

The village is also very close to Wetlands Wildlife Park near Lound and many of its fishing lakes.

Mike Reid, an actor who played the part of Frank Butcher in the B.B.C. program Eastenders used to live in the village in the late 70's.
