The village and civil parish of Stockland sits on the northern scarp of the Blackdown Hills within East Devon, in the county of Devon, England. Its landscape of rolling farmland, hedgerows and stone cottages makes it a quiet spot popular with walkers and anyone after rural tranquillity.
Historically agricultural, the local economy still leans on mixed farming while many residents commute to nearby towns; community life is anchored by a small parish church with medieval roots and an active programme of village events and clubs that sustain a strong local identity. The parish’s combination of history, countryside and close-knit social life gives it a character typical of small Devon villages but with its own distinct local flavour.
