The village and neighbouring communities of Morgans Vale, Woodfalls and Downton together provide a varied range of recreational, health and educational facilities, the Trafalgar School recording a good recent Ofsted report. The local facilities are supplemented by a broader range of amenities available within the Cathedral City of Salisbury (approximately 8 miles), including mainline rail services (London Waterloo in 86 minutes) and the highly sought after Grammar schools of Bishops Wordsworth and South Wilts.
