Little Milton is a village and civil parish in Oxfordshire, about 6 miles (10 km) southwest of Thame and 7 miles (11 km) southeast of Oxford.
The parish is bounded to the west by the River Thame, to the south by Haseley Brook (a tributary of the Thame), to the north by field boundaries and to the east by an old track between Great Milton and Rofford that is now a bridleway.
Little Milton village is on raised ground above the River Thame floodplain, about 250 feet (76 m) above sea level. The A329 road between Thame and Shillingford via Stadhampton passes through the village.
St James' Church in Little Milton was built in 1844 by John Hayward[2] of Exeter. The west tower was added by Hayward in 1861
