Little Harrowden is a small, historic village and civil parish in North Northamptonshire, England, lying close to the market town of Wellingborough. Set in a gently rolling agricultural landscape typical of the region, it has a compact village core of older cottages and farm buildings with more modern housing on the edges, and feels distinctly rural despite its easy road and rail links to larger centres in the East Midlands.
The village boasts a historic parish church and the legacy of country-manor associations, and its economy remains rooted in farming alongside local small businesses; many residents commute to nearby towns for work. Socially it retains a village-centred character with a village hall, local events and traditional pub-life contributing to a strong community atmosphere.
