Stoke Rural (parish) in Staffordshire, England was created in 1894 from the eastern, mostly rural, parts of the parish of Stoke-on-Trent and was absorbed into Stoke-upon-Trent Rural District. The following year the parishes of Bagnall and Clayton were created out of parts of the parish and it was increased in size in 1910 by absorbing part of the urban district of Fenton. In 1922 the parish was abolished and the area shared between Caverswall civil parish in Cheadle Rural District and the County Borough of Stoke-on-Trent.
