It lies close to the army training camp of Wathgill in the adjoining civil parish of Walburn. A large part of the parish consists of Ministry of Defence ranges and training areas.

Stainton was historically a township in the parish of Downholme in the wapentake of Hang West in the North Riding of Yorkshire.[2]

Walburn became a separate civil parish in 1866.[3] In 1974 it was transferred to the new county of North Yorkshire.
