It is located about a mile and a half north of Newport Pagnell.

The village name is an Old English language word, and means 'Tir's home'. In the Domesday Book of 1086 the village was recorded as ''Telingham''.

There is a theory that the name Tyringham refers to a settlement of Thuringii Germans coming with the Anglo-Saxons in the Dark Ages.<ref>H. F. Nielsen, ''The Germanic Languages: Origins and Early Dialectal Interrelations'' (Tuscaloosa, 1989), p. 62 [Tyringham, Buckinghamshire, and related names may reflect settlements of Thuringians].</ref>

==Civil parish== Historically, the parish of 'Tyringham with Filgrave' (or 'Tyringham cum Filgrave') was first created in 1639 by the union of two parishes.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://visionofbritain.org.uk/unit/10011462|title=Relationships and changes Tyringham With Filgrave CP/AP through time|publisher=A Vision of Britain through Time|accessdate=27 August 2022}}</ref><ref>Youngs.
