An old pump
This old pump appears to bear little information, but the 1900 map shows it to be a genuine water source and not a garden ornament.

Old School Gardens
This lovely Cotswold stone building was, until quite recently, the village school. Originally founded in March, 1859, it took in local children to give them what was often an inconsistent education in early days. Pupils' abilities and teaching facilities varied quite widely and standards were sometimes compromised by other (typically farming related) activities in the village. However, the school continued to improve and kept running for many years until the latter twentieth century.
By the early 1980s pupil numbers had reached a low level, but these grew from then on. Extra classroom space was added with temporary cabins but moves were made to create a new school that would attract pupils from neighbouring villages for efficiency. As a result the new school was built by the recreation ground and the old school closed in 1998. It is now a private residence.
