==History==
The tiny 16th-century Newlands Church is about west of Little Town. William Wordsworth visited this church in 1826 while on a walking tour of the fells, and that he was so impressed by his first glimpse of the church through half-opened leaves that he wrote a stanza in his poem ''To May''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url= http://www.visitcumbria.com/kes/chk4.htm )〕
Children's author and illustrator Beatrix Potter set ''The Tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle'' (1905) in and around Little Town. The tale's child heroine Lucie was inspired by the real world one-year-old Lucie Carr, the daughter of the vicar of the Newlands Church. In the tale, Lucie lives at Little-town farm, although the real Lucie lived at Skelgill.
