The Stoneham Estate was the principal estate of the Fleming Estate in Hampshire, at North Stoneham and South Stoneham.

The manor of North Stoneham, with North Stoneham Park, was purchased in 1599 by Sir Thomas Fleming. (He had previously acquired neighbouring North Baddesley manor around 1583, which he sold on around 1602.) The estate included a detachment at Boyatt Meadow in Otterbourne.

Over the years, the Stoneham Estate was enlarged with the purchase of neighbouring properties: Swaythling and Hatch manors, with Swaythling House, were acquired (or partly inherited) in 1776; South Stoneham manor, with South Stoneham House and Wood Mills, in 1819; and Mainsbridge alias Swaythling and Pollack manors in 1821; and the Itchen fishery in 1828 (bringing the Stoneham Estates to nearly 5,000 acres). The last major addition was a portion of the Brambridge Estate, purchased in 1861. A new Willis Fleming family home, Stoneham Park House, was built in 1913, but sold just a few years later. South Stoneham House was a principal home of the Fleming family at different periods of the 19th century.

North Stoneham House, the ancestral mansion at Stoneham Park, rebuilt in 1818, was demolished in 1939. The major portions of the Stoneham estates were sold at two auctions, in 1913 and 1953.

The Stoneham Estate was surveyed by John Whitcher in 1818.
