Littleworth is a small village and civil parish off the A420, almost northeast of Faringdon. It was part of Berkshire until the 1974 boundary changes transferred it to Oxfordshire. The parish includes the hamlets of Thrupp and Wadley. ==History== Littleworth was historically part of the ecclesiastical parish of Great Faringdon. At the time of the Domesday Book in 1086 it appears to have been part of the manor of Worth. The manor became known as Wadley by the 13th century, and in 1440 Henry VI granted it to Oriel College, Oxford. In the 16th century Wadley manor house was leased to the Unton family, who were prominent at the court of Elizabeth I, among them Henry Unton the diplomat. The house was visited by the queen in 1574 and by James I in 1603.〔 The main settlement at Worth became known as Littleworth by the late 13th century, to distinguish it from Longworth about to the east. Littleworth was made a separate ecclesiastical parish in 1843〔 but was not made a separate civil parish until 1952.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=A Vision of Britain through Time: Relationships )〕
