It lies within the West Dorset administrative district, on the edge of the Blackmore Vale about {{convert|2|mi|km}} north of Sherborne. In the 2011 census the parish had a population of 128.[1] Poyntington shares a grouped parish council, Yeohead & Castleton Parish Council, with the three village parishes of Castleton, Goathill and Oborne.[2] Historically the village was part of the hundred of Horethorne in neighbouring Somerset.[3] All Saints' Church has grown from an Anglo-Saxon two-room design and contains original Norman work. Murals on pillars were discovered in 1848[4] but were destroyed by their exposure. Two stained-glass windows date from the fourteenth century. An unusual addition is a carving of an angel's wing which was blown off Amiens Cathedral in World War I and then donated to the church.[5] Notable residents
