There used to be three public houses in the village but now there is just the Plough Inn. The Red Lion is one of those that closed some years ago. It is known to have been in business by 1832 and acquired by the Witney brewers Cinch & Co in the late 19th century. It closed in the second half of the 20th century and is now a private residence. The building is believed to incorporate earlier cottages.
