Little Horwood is a small, rural village and civil parish in Buckinghamshire, set amid rolling countryside north of Milton Keynes and close to Great Horwood. The village retains a historic core of timber‑framed and brick cottages, a parish church and a number of listed buildings, and much of it sits within a conservation area that preserves traditional lanes and field patterns.
Historically agricultural, the local economy still reflects farming alongside small businesses, while many residents commute to nearby towns. Community life is characterful for its size, with an active parish council, village events and a quiet, village‑scale social scene that reflects its long rural history in England and the old Aylesbury Vale area.
