Nearby, the village playing field has a bright and modern playcentre for children, with swings, slides, climbing frames, an obstacle course - and seating for Mums, Dads, and Grandparents to relax whilst the youngsters frolic.

The village car park is adjacent to the playcentre and playing field. The grass playing field has football or cricket pitches. At the far end (not shown, behind the camera here) is the venue for the annual bonfire and fireworks show in early November.
