A dependent chapel of Deddington parish church still existed in Hempton in 1523 but seems to have disappeared by the 17th century.[1]
A Methodist chapel was built in Clifton in about 1815.[1] It was a small brick building and has since been demolished.[1] The Methodists replaced it in 1869 with a new brick and stucco chapel[1] with plain lancet windows. It was still in use for worship in the 1950s but was disused by 1983[1] and is now a private house.
A new Church of England chapel of Saint James the Great was completed in 1853.[1] The Diocese of Oxford declared the chapel redundant in and sold it for secular commercial use in 1974.[1]
Clifton has a public house, the Duke of Cumberland's Head.
