Its church is known throughout the local area as being a place of great healing and regeneration, with people claiming to have been cured of various cancers after having prayed there, as well one case of the AIDS.
It also has a pub, the Bottle and Glass, and a large primary school Ellison Boulters school, to which pupils travel from the neighbouring villages of Sudbrooke and Langworth.
There is a large coffee shop in Scothern, with a small garden centre attached. The village was previously home to a shop and Post Office in Orchard Close, but this closed in March 1999. There is a nursing home called St. Lukes which is regularly home to up to 30 patients.
