Hello Merlinau,

The following page has a population timeline for Britain:

Population of Britain
http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk/customs/questions/population.html
"1600 Population of Britain just over 4 million 
1700 Population of Britain 5 million 
1801 Population of Britain 8 million 
1851 Population of Britain 20 million 
1901 Population of Britain 40 million 
1951 Population of Britain 50 million 
1998 Population of Britain just over 57 million"


I crosschecked the numbers. See:

University of Toronto at Scarborough Division of Mathematical Sciences
[PDF]
http://www.math.scar.utoronto.ca/a29/a3.pdf
"The population of Britain in 1600 is believed to have been about 5
millions. Three hundred fifty years later it had increased to 50
millions."


Hope it helps!
