Little Packington

Little Packington is a hamlet and civil parish in the North Warwickshire district of the county of Warwickshire, England.[1] It is situated just to the northwest of Great Packington and outside the boundaries of Packington Park. Population details can be found under Coleshill. There is a small church dedicated to St Bartholomew. It is of Norman origin with medieval timber framing and 17th-century internal additions. It has however been converted for use as a private dwelling and access is granted only on special request. 1½ miles northeast of the church is Hermitage Manor, dating from the 12th century; remnants of its buildings and moat still exist today. There is also an ancient sandstone footbridge, adjacent to a ford which crosses the river Blythe.

An "iconic" landfill site in the area closed in 2015.[2]
