A pretty row of houses known as Winkle Street looks on to a stream from where the village gets its name the Caul-Bourne where it used to power five mills to the north. At the entrance to Winkle Street is a lodge and drive leading to Westover House, a privately owned manor house which stands on a hill overlooking Calbourne.
