Little Washbourne is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Dumbleton, in the Tewkesbury district, in Gloucestershire, England, 6 miles (10 km) east of Tewkesbury and 6 miles (10 km) west of Evesham.

[1] St Mary's Church dates from the 12th century, and is a Grade II* listed building.

Little Washbourne was first mentioned in a copy of a document dated to 780, in the form Uassanburnan.

"Little" was added much later (first recorded in the 17th century), to distinguish the place from Great Washbourne.

[2] In 780 Offa, King of Mercia, gave land there to the monks of Worcester, and as a result the manor became a detached part of Worcestershire, separated from the rest of the county by Great Washbourne in Gloucestershire.
