==History==
Stebbing is mentioned in the Domesday Book
"Henry de Ferrers holds Stebbing in demesne which Siward held as a manor and as two hides and 30 acres. Then and later two ploughs in demesne; now 3. Among the men then 4 ploughs now six and a half. There were six villans now eight. Then 16 bordars now 33."〔''Domesday Book: A Complete Transliteration''. London: Penguin, 2003. ISBN 0-14-143994-7 p.454〕
Half a mile north-west of the church is The Mount, the moated earthwork remains of the medieval castle.
In the late 13th century the manor of Stebbing passed briefly to the Scottish noble house of Douglas by virtue of the marriage of William the Hardy, Lord of Douglas to Eleanor de Lovaine, the widow of William de Ferrers of Groby. Eleanor was a ward of Edward I, and had her late husband's manors of Stebbing and Woodham Ferrers made into a dowry for a future re-marriage. Douglas absconded with Eleanor, when she was attending to her late husband's estates in Scotland, and married her c.1288. Douglas, a significant figure on the Scottish side during the First Scottish War of Independence, had his English manors finally forfeited by 1298 when he died of mistreatment in the Tower of London. His son Hugh Douglas having been captured previously at Stebbing in 1296, by the Sheriff of Essex.〔(Fraser, Sir William. ''The Douglas Book'', Edinburgh 1885. vol i, pp.75,78,79,93,192 )〕
