Little Baldon is a hamlet in the Marsh Baldon civil parish, about 5 miles (8 km) southeast of Oxford in Oxfordshire, south of Marsh Baldon and west of Chiselhampton.

Little Baldon is near the other "Baldon" villages included in an old rhyme:

Marsh Baldon, Toot Baldon, Baldon on the Green,
Little Baldon, Big Baldon, Baldon-in-between

It is where an RAF Handley Page Hastings crashed in 1965, killing all 41 people aboard. ^[1] This was the third worst air crash in the United Kingdom up to that time. ^[2] A memorial plaque in the parish church of St Lawrence at Toot Baldon commemorates the disaster.
