In 1872, the parish extended to 1,104 acres (447 ha) and in the 150 years between 1801 and 1951 the population almost doubled.

The parish church of St David is a Grade II listed building, and has many memorials to distinguished local people. It was described in 1833 as “an ancient and venerable structure, in the early style of English architecture, and in good repair” It was rebuilt in the late 19th century but retains its late-mediaeval tower.
