Littleborough is a hamlet in Nottinghamshire, England. It is 8 miles (13 km) east of Retford, and is in the civil parish of Sturton le Steeple (where the population is included). 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.

The Church of England parish church of St Nicholas is Norman, and contains some Roman tiles in its stonework.[1]
