Stonydelph is a suburban neighbourhood and electoral ward about 2 miles (3 km) south east of the centre of Tamworth in Staffordshire, England. At the 2021 census, the population of the ward was 7,626.[1]
A spelling of "Stoneydelph" is sometimes used but the OS map of 1888 shows "Stonydelph Farm" as the only building in this area. Much of the area is based around a road named "Pennine Way".
Stonydelph ward elects three members to Tamworth Borough Council and one member to Staffordshire County Council.[2][3]

There are many horseshoe-shaped roads that sprout off from Pennine Way.
