The town offers a variety of national and independent retailers for your everyday needs including opticians, dentist, doctors and a cottage hospital. There are a selection of supermarkets nearby including Tesco, Asda and Waitrose. Communications are excellent with the A350 running from north to the south coast and the A303 a short distance. The nearby towns of Tisbury and Gillingham have a mainline railway station with services from London Waterloo to the West Country. The area offers a large choice of State and Independent primary and secondary schools.

An attached brick built outhouse houses the boiler.
