The civil parish includes the larger village of Galphay, and also the village of Mickley. The population of the parish in the 2001 census was 355, reducing to 340 at the 2011 Census.[1] The civil parish shares a grouped parish council with the civil parish of Winksley.[4]

Braithwaite Hall, about half a mile north west of Galphay, is a Grade II listed building thought to date from the 16th century.[5] It should not be confused with Braithwaite Hall in Coverdale, a National Trust property.
