The parish church of St Hilary's dates from 1875. It replaced an earlier church dedicated to St Hilary and St Albinus – originally there were two churches in the village, but the site of St Albinus is unrecorded.
By July 2007, St Hilary's had raised enough money to have its organ renovated. The restoration project was completed and the historic Thomas Nicholson organ was re-dedicated by the Bishop of Lincoln on St Hilary's Day, 13 January 2008.[3]
There is also a village hall.
