Stockton Village - Discover centuries of history in a traditional Warwickshire village.
Stockton is a historic village and civil parish in the Stratford-on-Avon district of Warwickshire. Situated just northeast of Southam and southwest of Rugby, the village combines rural charm with a rich heritage that stretches back many centuries.
The earliest recorded reference to Stockton dates from 1272, with its name believed to mean "a fenced enclosure". During the 19th century, the village developed into an important industrial community, helping to shape the character and history that visitors can still appreciate today.
One of Stockton's most significant landmarks is its parish church. Historical records show that a church existed in the village during the reign of Henry I, between 1100 and 1135, meaning there has been a place of worship on the site for around 900 years. The church remains an important part of the village's identity and heritage.
