Stockbury is a village and civil parish in the Maidstone district of Kent, England. The population of the civil parish at the Census 2011 was 691.[1]

In 1800, Edward Hasted noted, it was called in the Domesday survey, Stochingeberge, in later records, Stockesburie, and then Stockbury. Most of the parish was within the hundredofEyhorne and a divisionofWest Kent.[2]

Most of the parish is on a valley (between Key Street, Sittingbourne and Detling Hill, Maidstone).[2]

On St. Mary Magdalen's day, 22 July, there used to be a pedlars fair near the Three Squirrels public house.[3]

The parish church, dedicated to St Mary Magdalene, is a Grade I listed building and the adjacent ringwork is a scheduled monument.[4][5] Listed in the Domesday Book.
