During the 1970s and 1980s, the Village became rundown and almost derelict until it was acquired by Maritime Housing Association, who refurbished and adapted the properties to modern standards. During these improvements the old foundry school was converted into three bungalows for the elderly and disabled. After the Vulcan Inn, it is the second largest building in the Conservation Area.
