[4] The historical map of Poughill (in 1945) shows a number of contour lines where land reaches 600 feet (180 m) above sea level.

The highest social grade (AB) included 25 residents of Poughill who worked as higher and intermediate managerial/administrative/professional positions.

The next census data collection showed Poughill's total population had fallen lower than ever at the time, recorded at 154 residents in 1931 (-69) .

[10] Census data from 2011 shows that residents aged 45–59 years made up the highest percent of the total population, accounting for 28.2%.

[11] 2001 data shows the highest percentage of the total population to be 24.7% however this percent was due to those aged 30–44 years, unlike 2011.

[15] Data regarding religion varied more in the 2011 census: total population had increased but the number of Christians in Poughill had decreased to 122 residents.

[16] The parish church, dedicated to St Michael, is a Grade I listed building.

[17] The church is early perpendicular English; consists of a double nave and chancel, with a tower; had formerly a chantry; and was thoroughly repaired in 1856.

This data shows, similarly to 1831, residents of Poughill don't tend to work in the manufacturing industry.

Data shows us that out of the 53 members of the community working in agriculture (as shown on the graph below), 52 of these workers were male.
