Stoke Goldington

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stoke Goldington is a village and civil parish in the Borough of Milton Keynes and ceremonial Buckinghamshire, England. It is located about four miles NNW of Newport Pagnell, on the old road to Northampton.

The village name 'Stoke' is an Old English language word, and means 'hamlet'. It is one of the commonest place names in England (see Stoke (disambiguation)). In the Domesday Book of 1086 the village was recorded as Stoche. The affix 'Goldington' came later and refers to "Peter of Goldington" (from Goldington in Bedfordshire) who was the principal tenant in the village in the medieval period.
