Stoke Newington
Stoke Newington is a district in the London Borough of Hackney. It is north-east of Charing Cross.
==Boundaries==
In modern terms, Stoke Newington (informally called "Stokey" by the local residents 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eastlondonlines.co.uk/2011/06/sainsburys-supermarket-for-church-street/ )〕) can be roughly defined by the N16 postcode area (though this also includes parts of Stamford Hill and parts of the almost forgotten district of Shacklewell). Its southern boundary with Dalston is ill-defined too, but it was once a well-defined administrative unit. In 1899 the Metropolitan Borough of Stoke Newington was formed out of the greater part of the parish of that name. The resulting boundaries seem rather anomalous now; the entire eastern side of Stoke Newington High Street and beyond, including Stoke Newington Common, were included in the next door Metropolitan Borough of Hackney, but in fact this area was then part of the parish of Hackney – not Stoke Newington – and much of it would have been regarded as being in Shacklewell at the time. These apparent oddities became moot when in 1965, the Metropolitan Borough became part of the London Borough of Hackney. Immediately to the south of Stoke Newington is Newington Green, also ill-defined, though they used to be two distinct villages separated by a mile of fields.
Throughout all these changes, the core of Stoke Newington, centred on Church Street, has retained its own distinct 'London village' character: Nikolaus Pevsner wrote〔The Buildings of London; 1953 "Stoke Newington is not entirely London yet"〕 that he found it hard to see the district as being in London at all.
