It is within the townland of Timakeel (from the Irish Tigh Mhic Caoil) and part of the Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council area.

Within the village there is a post office, gospel hall, primary school and a filling station.

Richmount Primary School has grown in numbers since the building of new estates on either side of Scotch Street.

Rapid growth in the population of the settlement has come about with the development of many new housing estates including Keelmount Grange and Timakeel Close.
