History: The Pumping Station in Littleton was likely used to drain and manage water to aid in the improvement of agricultural land and the expansion of residential areas of Littleton village and was likely built in the late 1800s or early 1900s.

Modernisation of water management systems in the greater Winchester area since made the plant redundant – hence it became available, after a number of commercial iterations, for conversion to residential use.
