The conservation area is based principally around two streets, High Street and Green Street. High Street runs north to south through the village and the boundary terminates at the southern edge after St Sebastian’s Church, which separates the historic centre from modern housing developments on the southern outskirts of the village. The boundary continues north along High Street, following the line of development on the west side and terminates at the northern end of the village. On the east side, the area of modern development from the junction with Long Street up to the Recruiting Sergeant public house is excluded from the boundary. The boundary extends to the west from High Street along Green Street, incorporating all properties on the north side. On the south side, properties up to the junction with The Hemplands public footpath are included within the boundary. Beyond this point the boundary follows the line of the road and sweeps around to incorporate the western side of Pond Street up to the intersection with Spring End. The conservation area covers a total of 5.30 hectares.
The conservation area is predominantly residential.
The conservation area contains 11 listed buildings, all but one are Grade II listed, and 3 un-listed buildings of local interest. St Sebastian parish church is a Grade I listed building dating back to the early 13th century.
