Stanningfield takes its name from the Early English name “Stanfella” or “Stansfelda” meaning “stony field” The area was occupied early in recorded British history as traces of Roman occupation has been found on one local farm. The River Lark is a dominant feature, as are several village greens.

Stanningfield centres on the green, the Red House inn and the nearby community shop. The inn was built in 1865; Henry Cornish was recorded as landlord in 1871. There is a picturesque area around St Nicholas’s Church, which includes the village hall, the old rectory and several old farmhouses.
