Little Hatfield

In 1823 Little Hatfield was in the civil parish of Sigglesthorne, and in the Wapentake and Liberty of Holderness. Population at the time was 25, which included a farmer.[1]

The village was a civil parish until 1935, when it was merged with Goxhill and Great Hatfield to form the parish of Hatfield.[2]

Little Hatfield was served from 1864 to 1964 by Sigglesthorne railway station on the Hull and Hornsea Railway.[3]
