Background
History
Stone (then spelt Stanes) was recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) as a formerly Anglo-Saxon manor with an associated mill lying within the Cresslow Hundred. Some 24 people then lived in the village. Immediately adjoining it downhill was the separate but smaller manor of Dunclent. After Cresslow was combined with others to create the larger Halfshire, what was by then the parish of Stone also included the settlements of Dunclent, Shenstone, Stanklin and part of Hoobrook. | territorial_extent = Great Britain | royal_assent = 12 April 1763 | commencement = 25 November 1762 | repeal_date = | repealing_legislation = | related_legislation = | status = Current | original_text = | collapsed = yes…
