Little Clifton is a civil parish in the district of Allerdale located on the edge of the Lake District in the county of Cumbria, England. In 2001 it had a population of 391〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadTableView.do?a=3&b=792969&c=little+clifton&d=16&e=15&g=431490&i=1001x1003x1004&m=0&r=1&s=1318858015578&enc=1&dsFamilyId=779 )〕 and contained 170 households.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.neighbourhood.statistics.gov.uk/dissemination/LeadTableView.do?a=7&b=792969&c=little+clifton&d=16&e=15&g=431490&i=1001x1003x1004&o=1&m=0&r=1&s=1332242797644&enc=1&dsFamilyId=785 )〕 increasing to a population of 480 in the 2011 Census in 207 households.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Parish population 2011 )〕 The village of Little Clifton is 0.3 miles south of Bridgefoot (although it is hard to tell where one ends and the other begins) and 3.5 miles east of Workington. The river Derwent is roughly 1 mile north of Little Clifton. In 1887 John Bartholomew, whilst writing for the Gazetteer of the British Isles, described Little Clifton as a township of 489 persons within a parish 3½ miles SE of Workington. Workington was, at that time, a district within the former county of Cumberland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/descriptions/entry_page.jsp?text_id=1983900&word )
==Early area history and Toponymy==

Cumbria is formed of the older counties of Cumberland, Westmorland, parts of North Lancashire and North Yorkshire. There are signs of human inhabitancy as early as 5000 years ago with stone circles discovered under 20 miles east of Little Clifton at Long Meg and Castlerigg amongst other places. The early settlements are in areas suitable for crafting tools such as stone axes and became the source for quarrying in the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.visitcumbria.com/history.htm )
Celtic immigration began around 500BC and developed in Cumbria as Brigantes. Celtic Brigantians had a major settlement at Carlisle and inhabited the area later known as Rheged around 100CE.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.celtnet.org.uk/brythonic-tribes.html )〕 The Celts flourished following Roman rule after the transitional period of Roman rule to Celtic rule c350-420AD. Anglo Saxon invasion absorbed Rheged into the (now) powerful Anglo Saxon kingdom of Northumbria c.630AD. It is From the Anglo Saxons that Little Clifton gained its name.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.inheritage.org/almanack/c_cumbria.html )〕 The suffix 'ton' in Little Clifton is Anglo Saxon or 'old English' for enclosure, estate or homestead.
