The building on the right (Forge House and Barrow House) has an urban bulk to it that seems at odds with the village context. On the left, the pub is the Maypole - much more in keeping with the scale of the old village centre. The village has expanded (in various directions) in the last thirty years or so, but I saw posters in support of a campaign to resist further development. Notice the traffic cones - witches' hats - often a feature of village churchyards these days.
