Littleborough is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Sturton le Steeple, in the Bassetlaw district, in the county of Nottinghamshire, England. It is 8 miles (13 km) east of Retford. Littleborough is the site of the Roman town of Segelocum or Agelocum, on the west bank of the River Trent where the road linking Lincoln and Doncaster bridged or forded the river. In 1931 the parish had a population of 32.[1] On 1 April 1935 the parish was abolished and merged with Sturton le Steeple.[2]

The Church of England parish church of St Nicholas is Norman, and contains some Roman tiles in its stonework.[3]
