Most of the listed buildings are houses and cottages in the village, and many of these date from the 17th century, although most have been altered or extended. Only one of the buildings is listed at Grade II*, the middle of the three grades; this is St Nicholas' Church. All the other buildings are listed at Grade II, the lowest grade. The major house in the village is Burton Manor, which was later converted into an adult education college, although this closed in 2011. There are separate listed structures associated with the church and the manor.
