In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described North Littleton like this:
LITTLETON (NORTH), a village and a parish in Evesham district, Worcester. The village stands near the river Avon, on the E verge of the county, 4 miles NE by N of Evesham r. station.—The parish contains also the village of Middle Littleton; and it has a post office, of the name of Littleton, under Evesham. ...
Acres, 1,610. Real property, £2,753; of which £20 are in quarries. Pop., 303. Houses, 72. The property is divided among a few. The living is a p. curacy, annexed to the p. curacy of South Littleton, in the diocese of Worcester. The church stands at Middle-Littleton; ranges from Norman to later English; and was recently in bad condition. The shaft of an ancient cross is in the churchyard; and a large ancient building, once a tithe-barn of Evesham abbey, is near the church. There is a national school.
