Today the local economy mixes agriculture and small independent businesses, with many people commuting to nearby centres. The community is active with village events, a local history interest and a couple of traditional pubs, while surrounding lanes and hedgerow‑lined countryside are popular for walking and riding, reflecting a quiet but well‑connected rural life.
