In 2001 the population of the civil parish of Standon was 823 and in the 2011 census it had a population of 879. Standon in Old English has a particular meaning which when broken down means 'Stone Hill'. The elements in Old English are 'stan' which means a stone rock and 'dun' which means a hill. Dated to 1086 the Church of All Saints has been listed as a Grade One building. It was rebuilt in 1847 except the middle aisle and the tower. It has since been restored three times with extensive work happening to the roof. The Church is a part of a benefice of churches which is formed of four church parishes of Staffordshire villages. These four parishes are Cotes Heath Swynnerton with Yarnfield Standon and Tittensor and these create the united family of 'The CoSST Churches'. The parishes are small Church of England parishes located 10 miles from the city of Stoke-on-Trent in the Lichfield Diocese. According to the Domesday Book from 1086 Standon had nine households which is considered quite small with 11 villagers three smallholders three slaves and one priest. The Lord of Standon in 1086 was Brian of Rauceby and the recorded Tenant-in-Chief was Robert of Stafford. In 1086 there were six ploughlands of which one was owned by the Lord of Standon and five were for men's plough teams. Prior to the Domesday Book the Lord of Standon was recorded to be Siward in 1066. Will be well-packed for posting/shipping. 8vo.
