The parish includes the hamlets of Bould and Foscot. The 2011 Census recorded the parish's population as 240.
==Archaeology== About west of the village is a hillfort, Idbury Camp. It was used in the Iron Age, Roman occupation and Saxon era, and possibly earlier. The village's toponym is derived from the Old English for "Ida's burh", further attesting to the fort's continued use in the Saxon era. The remains of its rampart are about wide, up to high and enclose an area of about . The fort is a scheduled monument.
