The Manx-language name of the House remains ('The Four and Twenty'). Governance Members are known as ''Members of the House of Keys'' (MHKs).

As a result, there is an exclave of the parish district which includes the Calf of Man. Other settlements in the parish include Cregneash. Local government For the purposes of local government, the majority of the area of the historic parish formed a single parish district, with Commissioners, but this has now been amalgamated with Arbory. (See Arbory and Rushen.) Since the 1880s, two areas of the historic parish of Rushen have been the two separate village districts of Port Erin and Port St Mary, each with its own village commissioners. The Captain of the Parish (since 1998) ...
