The hamlet contains approximately 17 homes (including the old school house, now converted into a dwelling) and a restaurant. Most of the older properties were built by the Berkeley family who once owned much of the land.

One of the farms in the hamlet still has a working wind pump in use today which is over one hundred years old.
