Luffield Abbey was formerly a civil parish in Buckinghamshire, England, adjoining the border with Northamptonshire. It had its origins as the estate of Luffield Priory, which was an extra-parochial area that straddled Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire. The Northamptonshire part was added to the parish of Silverstone in 1844, after which Luffield Abbey was wholly in Buckinghamshire. Such extra-parochial areas were converted into civil parishes in 1858. The civil parish was abolished in 2001 and the area now forms part of the parish of Lillingstone Dayrell with Luffield Abbey.
