The parish covers 5,258 vergées (9.5 km²) and occupies the centre of the Island. Much of the parish is inland, though it has a short stretch of coastline in St. Aubin's Bay. It borders St Peter and St Mary to the west, St John to the north and east, and St Helier to the east. MuseumsHamptonne, the Country Life Museum, occupies restored farm buildings in the parish. An apple orchard preserves native Jersey cider apple varieties and the preinseu (cider press house) is the focus of the annual Faîs'sie d'cidre cidermaking festival using traditional equipment and methods. The ITV drama Under the Greenwood Tree was mostly filmed here.[3] The Jersey War Tunnels (previously known as the German Underground Hospital) are a major relic of the engineering works undertaken by the occupying German forces 1940–1945. They also serve as a memorial to the many slave-workers pressed into labouring on such projects during the Second World War. {{stack||}}AdministrationVingtainesThe parish is divided into vingtaines for administrative purposes:
