Its name is said to be derived from the Norse words ''askr'', meaning "ash", and ''by'', meaning "farm".〔(Little Asby ) at the Cumbria Directory〕 A chapel at the site (St Leonard’s Chapel), of which little remains, is the main reason that the village was built.〔(Little Asby ) at the Cumbria Directory〕 Just outside the village, to the west, is Little Asby Common, which is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and a Special Area of Conservation because of the plant species that inhabit the limestone pavement areas, as well as the limestone geology of the area.〔(Little Asby Common ) on the Friends of the Lake District website〕 In chronostratigraphy, the British sub-stage of the Carboniferous period, the 'Asbian' derives its name from Little Asby Scar.〔Harland, W.B. 1990 ''A Geologic Time Scale 1989'', Cambridge University Press p43〕 ==Sources==
