Stoke Albany is a small village and civil parish in North Northamptonshire, England, set in the rolling agricultural landscape of the East Midlands. It has the compact feel of a traditional rural settlement, with stone cottages and farmsteads, quiet lanes and footpaths that make it attractive for walkers and those seeking a peaceful village atmosphere.
Historically agricultural, the community remains small - just a few hundred residents - and centres on its parish amenities and occasional village events. Since 2021 it forms part of the unitary authority of North Northamptonshire, while larger market towns such as Kettering and Market Harborough are within easy reach for shops and services. The village’s name reflects the Old English “stoc” for an outlying settlement, hinting at its long rural roots.
