The parish is bordered to the north west by Askerton, to the north by Tarset, to the north east by Henshaw, to the south east by Thirlwall (these three being in Northumberland), to the south by Waterhead and Burtholme and to the south west by Walton. There is a parish council, the lowest tier of local government. The parish is described by its parish council as having "several farms, dwellings and small hamlets" but "no school, no pub, no church or village hall".
