Littleton (electoral Division)
Littleton is an electoral division in County Tipperary in Ireland. The code number assigned it by the Central Statistics Office is 22071. Electoral divisions were originally created in the 1830s as part of the implementation of the Poor Laws. Neighbouring divisions, such as Moycarkey, Ballymurreen, Rahealty and Twomileborris were created to help elect the Board of Guardians for the Thurles poor law union; however Littleton division was not created at that time.

Relationship to civil parishes At the time of both the 1911 and the 2011 census, the division included townlands from several civil parishes: Galbooly, B ...
