The Round House was built in 1827, originally as a parish prison. Later it housed the hand-drawn fire-engine and then the village bier (a small trolley used to carry a coffin). It is now an occasional exhibition 'hall'.

Behind it can be seen the double-doors of the very last blacksmith's shop in the village. Further on, nearer to Hall Orchard Primary School, was the pinfold. This was a small yard used to hold stray animals.
