There is also a recreation field including a cricket club, a play park and an intriguing history with Roman connections. Neighbouring Alton has a station within 1.5 miles (Waterloo line), High Street shops within 1.75 miles, supermarkets such as Waitrose, M & S Simply Food, Sainsbury's and Aldi, weekly and specialist street market events, senior and Convent schools, Alton College, a library, museum and gallery, a sports centre and 2 outlying golf courses.
