History
Though the village is not mentioned specifically in the Domesday Book, it is thought that some of the lands would have been split between the manors of Sessay and Birdforth and followed the inheritance of those places thereafter. By the end of the 19th century, the village lands were owned by Viscount Downe.
The village used to have both Wesleyan and Primitive Methodist Chapels.
