Today the village has a bi-monthly farmers market by The Green selling local produce and an interesting array of listed buildings. It lies close to Ashford where guests can pick up all their necessities at the local supermarket before touring the spectacular halls of the Jacobean Godinton House and Gardens or refuelling at The New Fox Inn.
