The School Room, originally built in 1932 as an educational facility, now serves as a village hall for Tiers Cross. [8]

In July 2024 a new council housing project, the Tudor Place Project, was completed to benefit tenants with a local connection. A mix of sustainable, prefabricated and affordable homes would help locals to stay in the area. [9]

A pub, the Welcome Traveller Inn, dating back to the 1600s, closed in 2021 and was converted to a private residence. [10]

There are seven listed buildings in the community, all Grade II. [11]
