Stantonbury is a district and civil parish of Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire, England, situated roughly 2 miles (3.2 km) north of Central Milton Keynes.[2] The toponym Stanton is derived from an Old English term for "stone-built farmstead" and the bury element from the French family Barri who held it in 1235.[3][4] The original Stantonbury is a deserted medieval village now known as Stanton Low;[5] the Stantonbury name has been reused for the modern district at the heart of the civil parish.
