About Doxey
Where to stay in Doxey
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Stafford holds the rooms. Doxey sits close enough to the town that a bed booked in Stafford leaves St Thomas and St Andrew, Doxey House and Aston Hall all inside a short local run. The parish itself is residential.
Its register runs to four addresses rather than to hotels, and the listed house at 146, Doxey Road stands among ordinary streets on the north-western side of Stafford.
About Doxey
What are the main landmarks in Doxey?
Four entries, and no crowd. St Thomas and St Andrew is the parish church, and beside it the register sets Doxey House, Aston Hall and the listed frontage at 146, Doxey Road, three addresses of quite different kinds on the same suburban ground. Doxey's record runs out at that frontage.
The set is small enough to read in one afternoon, and it belongs to a parish that took its civil status only in 2005 rather than to a long-established visitor town.
What is the history of Doxey?
Doxey became a civil parish on 1 April 2005. Both descriptions hold: village and north-western suburb of Stafford, inside the borough of Stafford in Staffordshire, with older fabric surviving in St Thomas and St Andrew and in Doxey House. Aston Hall stands with them.
The Staffordshire records still treat Doxey as both village and parish, a double status that the listed frontage at 146, Doxey Road quietly reflects in a street of otherwise ordinary houses.
Where is Doxey?
The parish forms a north-western suburb of Stafford, inside the borough of Stafford in Staffordshire, England, with Doxey Road running through it.
