==Geography== The village lies on top of a broad chalk ridge of high ground. It has a village hall which was originally built in 1895 as the village school. The parish church of St Faith's is on the edge of the village. The parish also includes surrounding rural areas, particularly to the north-west where the parish extends down the hills to the ancient Icknield Way, now the A505 road, which at this point forms the county boundary with Cambridgeshire.
