Stocking Pelham is a small, quiet rural parish in the district of East Hertfordshire, in the county of Hertfordshire, England. It is one of the three Pelham villages and sits amid rolling farmland and winding lanes rather than a compact urban centre, giving it a dispersed, countryside character popular with walkers and those seeking a tranquil rural life.

Historically the village has medieval roots and retains a number of traditional cottages and lanes that hint at its long agrarian past; farming still shapes the local economy and landscape. Socially the community is small and closely knit, with local events and neighbouring parishes such as Furneux Pelham and Brent Pelham often forming the nearest hubs for village life and amenities.
