Welcome to Littlebury

Littlebury is a small village located in the Uttlesford district of Essex, England. The village is situated on the River Cam, which flows through the village and provides a picturesque setting for visitors. Littlebury is known for its historic buildings, including the 12th-century church of St. Peter and St. Paul, which is a Grade I listed building. The village also has a number of thatched cottages, which add to its charm and character.

Littlebury has a rich history, dating back to the Roman period. The village was an important centre for the wool trade in the Middle Ages, and many of the buildings in the village date from this period. Littlebury was also the site of a battle during the English Civil War, when Royalist forces defeated a Parliamentarian army. Today, Littlebury is a peaceful and quiet village, with a strong sense of community. The village has a number of local amenities, including a village hall, a pub, and a primary school.

Littlebury is surrounded by beautiful countryside, and there are many opportunities for outdoor activities in the area. The village is located close to the Essex Way, a long-distance footpath that runs through the county. The River Cam is also popular with anglers, and there are several fishing spots in the area. Littlebury is a great place to visit for those who enjoy walking, cycling, or simply exploring the countryside.
