Formerly in the parish of East Donyland, it is now (for local government purposes) a ward of Colchester Borough Council. It is on the south bank of the River Colne and is the first settlement downstream, about 4 km from Colchester. Wivenhoe is on the opposite bank and Fingringhoe is about 2 km to the south.
