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

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.
