This is a chart showing the population statistics for Stainton between 1881 and 2011 received from census data.
In 1941 there was no census so no recorded data.
Overtime there has been no considerable fluctuations in the data and the population seems to have kept at a steady rate.
In 1881 the recorded population was 388 and the most recent record was 313.
The lack of major fluctuations could suggest that the boundary of the parish hasn't moved over the years and there have been no major inputs and outputs into the village.
Peter Wood states that in the past "people rarely moved far away and were often related to each other" which could be the reason for such a stable trend.
