Most residents are suffering but many are frightened to raise their voices “in case they say anything the landlord can use against them”, says McBride. “The fear factor is real. They can be issued with a section 21 [no-fault eviction notice]. Families get split up because there’s no council houses.” The main feature is undoubtedly the residential offering, with there being little retail presence at all aside from a few shops scattered around the landscape.

Little London' is a common village name, assumed by some to have its origins in the quantity of seasonal Londoners who would camp for the harvest season. However, in common with many 'Little Londons' approximately fifty miles or so from London, it has also been claimed that the name was given by settlers escaping the Great Plague of London of 1665. Alternatively, it could have been corrupted from 'Little Loddon', the name of a stream that marks the southern extent of the village. Hey, I would have to agree with James Davies the most, maybe apart from being born in London. You don't have to be born in London just know it like a native would. I was born in London and have never left it for 16 years.
