==Church of St Andrew== The parish church in the village is dedicated to Saint Andrew. Although it has a 12th-century south doorway it mostly dates from the late 15th and early 16th centuries, having some ornate 16th-century bench ends and late medieval floor-tiles from Barnstaple. It was restored by Bodley & Garner in 1876.
