Alternatively known as Waterloo Square due to the army barracks located behind the houses to the left that were stationed in this village during the Napoleonic Wars. These buildings date from the 17th century and have all been converted into shops. At the eastern end of the square next to the junction with North Street are Bank House a former farmhouse that dates from the 18th century and The Old Bank, now a shop but originally a small bank.
