Stoke Mandeville is a village to the south of Aylesbury in the county of Buckinghamshire, England. It is a very wealthy parish, with a large amount of arable land within its borders. Stoke Mandeville Hospital, although named after the village, is located on the parish's border with Aylesbury and provides the largest spinal injuries ward in Europe.
The village was originally recorded as Stoches in the Domesday Book of 1086, from the Old English word stoc meaning an outlying farm or hamlet. The suffix Mandeville was first recorded in 1284 when the manor was listed as being in the hands of the powerful Norman de Mandeville family. The former medieval parish church on the outskirts of the village was condemned in the mid 20th Century and has now been demolished altogether. The newer red brick parish church of St Mary remains as the only church in the village apart from the Methodist church in Eskdale Road.
On May 13th 2000, the new Stoke Mandeville Millennium sign was unveiled. It stands on a small brick plinth on the green outside Stoke Mandeville Combined School. The sign shows aspects of village life over the centuries.
According to the Census Report the area of this parish is 1460 acres.
Stoke Mandeville railway station is also a station stop on the Chiltern Railways line, between Aylesbury station and Wendover station.
