 A minor road heads north and then north-east to reach Garthorpe and Fockerby, once on opposite banks of the River Don, but since the diversion of the river as part of the drainage of Hatfield Chase, effectively one community.Just to the north of the village, a track leaves the road, providing a route to Haldenby Grange, near to which there was a railway station until 1965.The parish church is situated in fields to the north-east of the village centre.
