The village has always been sparsely populated, with the population rising to around 100 in the early 19th-century, with 94 residents at the 1851 United Kingdom census.[2] The combined population of the modern parish is around 130.[3] The main area of population in St Nicholas is spread along the road leading from around St Margaret South Elmham to the site of the former parish church.[2][4]
The church of St Nicholas was in ruins by the 17th-century and by the early 20th-century only a cross survived marking the position of the building.[5][6] The parish church is now All Saints Church, South Elmham, although it is formally redundant and cared for by the Churches Conservation Trust.[7][8]
