Stoke Doyle is a village and civil parish in East Northamptonshire in England, two miles south-west of Oundle.
Governance
It is represented on the parish council of Pilton, Stoke Doyle and Wadenhoe,[1] on East Northamptonshire District Council[2] and Northamptonshire County Council. Stoke Doyle is part of the Corby constituency, represented at the House of Commons by Andy Sawford.[3]
Geography
Stoke Doyle is two miles south-west of the town of Oundle, on the road between there and Wadenhoe. A stream running through the village rises in Lilford Wood and flows into the River Nene.[4]
Demography
At the time of the 1991 census, the parish population was 64 people, living in a total of 29 houses.[2]
Landmarks
Stoke Doyle's church, dedicated to Saint Rumbold,[5] stands to the east of the road[4] and was built between 1722-1725.[2] The village has a pub, the Shuckburgh Arms.[6] A sign on the road claims the village is twinned with the Catalan city of Barcelona, but it's just a joke by one villager.[7]
