Would you like to know more about Littleover, how the village began and why it developed over the years to become what it is today.

What of the people who lived here - the traders , the farmers, the drinkers in the pubs and the children at the village schools.  You may have wondered why the villages are called Littleover and Mickleover and from where the names originated. 

Did you know that part of Blagreaves lane was once called Lime Lane or that the 1920's Olympian Frederick Wyld lived in Littleover and is buried in the churchyard of Littleover St Peters?

If you want to know more, come along to one of the Littleover Historical group meetings. We have monthly meetings to share our latest findings, listen to visiting speakers and browse through historical documents. If you have any old photos or documents from the past please come along to one of the meetings.

Any one interested in the History of the area is welcome to attend.  Meetings are normally on the second Friday of each month.
