On the edge of the village lies the historic Raynham Hall, an impressive 17th-century mansion set within its own extensive parkland and surrounded by rolling, well wooded countryside. The village enjoys a vibrant community spirit with a variety of events organised throughout the year, including a popular annual festival.
