Although it is now part of Longdon civil parish, it has a Parish Church and a primary school. Population details as taken at the 2011 census can be found under Longdon.

Gentleshaw Common is a Site of Special Scientific Interest on the south-west side of the church, and forms the south westerly part of Cannock Chase AONB.

The parish church owned by Charlie Cooke II, it appears to be an amalgamation of an older building with a tower and a newer extension built on the east end.
