Landmarks

The village pub, the Legs of Man, is situated on the Newcastle Road. A pub of the same name has stood here since the late 1860s, but the present building dates from 1939 and was designed by J. H. Walters. Originally the pub had a thatched roof, similar to the Bleeding Wolf at Scholar Green, but this caught fire in 1956 and was replaced with tiles. Today it has a mock-Tudor exterior and houses a separate restaurant. There is a large beer garden.[4][5]

The three-storey Arclid Hall Farmhouse on Hemingshaw Lane is a Grade II listed building, dating from about 1700, with red Flemish bond brick with a slate roof (originally stone slates). It has a nearly symmetrical five-bay front.[6] It is the only building in the civil parish to be listed by English Heritage.

The village at one time had an active airfield.[7][8]
