Little Abington is a small village and civil parish in South Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire, England, lying a few miles south‑east of Cambridge and adjoining Great Abington. Set in a rural landscape with nearby arable farmland and the course of the River Granta close by, it feels like a classic Cambridgeshire village while also serving as a popular commuter base for the city.
The village has a long history reflected in its church and several period cottages and listed buildings, and community life centres on a village hall, pub and local groups. Historically agricultural, the local economy now mixes farming with small businesses and residents who work in Cambridge or surrounding towns, and there are regular social events that sustain a strong local identity.
