The population of the civil parish taken at the 2011 Census was 716.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11126111&c=Low+Coniscliffe&d=16&e=62&g=6377592&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1454500898516&enc=1|title=Civil Parish population 2011|access-date=3 February 2016|publisher=Office for National Statistics|work=Neighbourhood Statistics}}</ref> It is situated {{convert|3|mi|km}} west of [[Darlington]]. Its present built-up area is confined in practice between the [[A1 road (Great Britain)|A1]], the [[A67 road|A67]] and the [[River Tees|Tees]], but its old boundaries probably extend much further. The village contains a couple of [[listed buildings]] and the probable site of a [[Middle Ages|medieval]] [[manor house]]. There was once a [[gallows]] in the village.<ref name="KeysGallows"/> A rare fungus ''[[Rhodotus]] palmatus'' was found nearby.<ref name="TheVasculum1993">{{cite web|url=http://www.the-vasculum.com/definitive_vasculum_archive/1993/1993.pdf |title=New and significant records of fungi from VC66 1992–1993 |last=Legg |first=A.&nbsp;W.|date=October 1994 |work=The Vasculum|issn=0049-5891 |access-date=18 March 2016 }}</ref><ref name="VasculumOct94">{{cite journal|url=http://www.the-vasculum.com/vasculum_archive/793.doc |journal=The Vasculum |volume=79|number=3 |last1=Coles |first1=A. |first2=L. |last2=Jessop |date=October 1994 |title=RUSSULALESBASIDIOMYCOTINA: AGARICALES, BOLETALES, CORTINARIALES |publisher=Sunderland Museum and Art Gallery |access-date=6 April 2010 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110716215959/http://www.the-vasculum.com/vasculum_archive/793.doc |archive-date=16 July 2011 }}</ref>
