Stonydelph is a neighbourhood about 3 km south east of the centre of Tamworth, Staffordshire. A spelling of "Stoneydelph" is also 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 acquired the name "the delph" during the late 80's, which is of course a shortened version of the original.
Within "Stonydelph" are two primary schools, The Dales Community School (Fossdale Road) and Stonydelph Primary School (Crowden Road). Both of these schools cover the area of Stonydelph, and are feeder schools for nearby Belgrave High School.
Stonydelph is served by the number 7, X74 from Tamworth to Birmingham and 780 to from Robert Peel Hospital
