It is one of the three Pelhams, with Stocking Pelham and Furneux Pelham. It shares a parish council with Meesden. The parish church of St Mary's dates from the 14th century. It contains a black marble tomb slab of the 13th century, upon which the name of legendary local dragon-slayer Piers Shonks and a date of 1086 has been added. Symbols of the Four Evangelists - angel, eagle, lion, and bull - have been carved in relief around a dragon's mouth.[1] The church is part of a benefice with Anstey, Hormead, Meesden and Wyddial.[2] Near St Mary's church are ancient stocks which could accommodate up to three people. A derelict windmill survives in the village. There is a Royal Observer Corps observer post just outside the village, but it is now in a state of disrepair. It has an Orlit, which is rare for posts in this area.{{citation needed|date=August 2014}} {{clear}}See also
