The High Street features many amenities including a chemist, post office, opticians and supermarkets including a Coop and Sainsburys local. There are plenty of shops and cafes within walking distance, and the Eastgate Centre with a large Tescos is 10 minutes away by car. Doctors' surgeries and dentists are all nearby.
