The village was originally recorded as Stoches in the Domesday Book of 1086, from the Old English word stoc meaning an outlying farm or hamlet. The suffix Mandeville was first recorded in 1284 when the manor was listed as being in the hands of the Mandeville family. The former medieval parish church on the outskirts of the village was condemned in the mid 12th Century and has now been demolished altogether. The newer red brick parish church of St Mary remains as the only church in the village.

StokeMandeville Hospital is a large hospital in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, England, it is one of three hospitals in the Buckinghamshire Hospitals NHS Trust.
The village of StokeMandeville was very badly hit by the cholera epidemic that swept across England in the early part of the decade, and so a cholera hospital was established on the parish border between StokeMandeville and Aylesbury.
In 1948 the NHS was founded and all operations were moved from the Royal Bucks to StokeMandeville, making it the main hospital in Aylesbury.
