The parish church is a Grade II* listed building dedicated to Saint Nicholas. The tower dates from the 11th century, the rest of the church being 15th-century, with a restoration in 1872. During restoration a Norman font was unearthed below the floor. A late 11th- or 12th-century grave marker lies against the east wall of the chancel.
An 1830 Grade II listed octagonal pump house exists here.
Pelham's Pillar is a 128 ft high Grade II listed tower, dating from 1840-49 by E. J. Willson.
