Little Faringdon is a village and civil parish in West Oxfordshire, about 1 mile north of Lechlade in neighbouring Gloucestershire. The 2001 Census recorded its population as 63.
In the late Anglo-Saxon era Little Faringdon was part of a large estate that included Faringdon , from which it took its name. The manor was one of several in the area granted to the Cistercian Beaulieu Abbey as part of its Faringdon estate by a charter of 1203 or 1204. Beaulieu held its estates until it had to surrender them to the Crown in the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1538. The manor was then held by the Bourchier and Perrott families. In about 1860 it was sold to Charles Ponsonby, 2nd Baron de Mauley, whose descendants hold it today. Until the 20th century Little Faringdon was an estate village. In 1910 the lord of the manor owned almost all the houses.
