Yep, more than 40 million people in the first circle, maybe 1.5 million in the second, only because Christchurch is just in it. Way less train service.

For the closest modern experience to reading Sutcliff I very much recommend Nicola Griffith's Hild and Menewood, 7th C Britain, Hild of Whitby before she was Hild of Whitby. Gets the sense of place, nature, people and otherness you feel in Sutcliff.
Cover to Menewood by Nicola Griffith, a red haired young woman in a blue cloth with a cross shaped brooch holds a short sword, bhind her are burning arrows, war banners and horses.
