Description Incorrect Description? Tell Us!Stewkley is a village in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located in the Aylesbury Vale, about five miles east of Winslow, four miles west of Leighton Buzzard.

The village name Stewkley is Anglo Saxon in origin, and means 'woodland clearing with tree stumps'. In the Domesday Book of 1086 it was recorded as Stiuclai.

The principal manor in Stewkley once belonged to the son of Geoffrey Chaucer, who was an occasional visitor to the village.

The parish church, dedicated to St Michael and All Angels, is one of the least-altered of England's 6000 Norman churches. There is also a Methodist Chapel in High Street South.

It is reputably the second longest village in Britain, However first placed Combe Martin's two mile high street is not as continuously populated as Stewkley's 1.7 miles of High street.
