The village is situated approximately {{convert|8|mi|km|0}} north from Aylesbury and {{convert|4|mi|km|1}} south-east from Winslow. In 2011, Dunton had a population (including Hoggeston) of 189.[1] The parish contains a Grade II* listed church. HistoryAccording to A Dictionary of British Place Names, the Dunton name is Old English in origin, and means an estate linked to a man called 'Dodda' or 'Dudda'. In the 1086 Domesday Book Dunton it is recorded as "Dodintone."[2] In the 1870s, John Marius Wilson described Dunton as: "a parish in Winslow district, Bucks; near the source of the river Thame, 4 miles SE by S of Winslow town and r. station."[3] Dunton's parish church is dedicated to St Martin. The church nave dates to the 12th century, the chancel to the 13th, and the tower to the 15th. Rebuilding and restoration took place in the 18th century. St Martin's was Grade II* listed by English Heritage in 1959.[4][5] The church is the only public building in Dunton, and is a centre for parish social life.[6] Further parish Grade II listed buildings include The Old Rectory, an early 18th-century house; and Dunton Manor, a 16th-century house with later alterations.[7][8] DemographicsDunton's population in 2011 was 189 according to census data.[1] Historically the parish population has not been this large. Past parish data shows population has only surpassed 100 people twice before 2001: once in 1831, when there were 116 people; and ten years later in 1841, when there were 107.[9] The numbers of males and females follow a general trend{{which|date=February 2015}} between 1801 and 2011. The only year in which males and females were of equal number was 1961, when each numbered 38.[9] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Dunton: Key figures for 2011 Census: Key Statistics|url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadKeyFigures.do?a=7&b=11122879&c=Dunton&d=16&e=62&g=6404044&i=1001x1003x1032x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1422364550051&enc=1|website=Neighbourhood Statistics|publisher=Office for National Statistics|accessdate=21 January 2015}} 2. ^Mills, Anthony David (2003); A Dictionary of British Place Names, Oxford University Press, revised edition (2011), p. 166. {{ISBN|019960908X}} 3. ^{{cite book|last1=Wilson|first1=John Marius|title=Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales|date=1870{{ndash}}72|publisher=A.Fullerton & Co.|location=Edinburgh|url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/2544|accessdate=27 January 2015}} 4. ^{{National Heritage List for England|num= 1211972|desc=Church of St Martin|accessdate= 7 February 2015}} 5. ^{{cite web|last1=Page|first1=William|title=Parishes: Dunton|url=http://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/bucks/vol3/pp348-350|website=British History Online|publisher=Victoria County History|accessdate=31 January 2015}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=St Martin's Church Dunton|url=http://www.schorneteam.co.uk/dunton/|website=Diocese of Oxford|accessdate=6 February 2015}} 7. ^{{National Heritage List for England|num= 1211976|desc=The Old Rectory, Main Road|accessdate= 7 February 2015|fewer-links=x}} 8. ^{{National Heritage List for England|num= 1211969|desc=Dunton Manor, Hoggeston Road|accessdate= 7 February 2015|fewer-links=x}} 9. ^1 {{cite web|publisher=GB Historical GIS / University of Portsmouth|title=Dunton CP/AP through time: Population Statistics: Total Population|url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10065185/cube/TOT_POP|website=A Vision of Britain through Time|accessdate=5 February 2015}} External links
