In the 19th century, Little Benton was a hamlet.[1] Until the 1980s, it housed nothing more than a farmer's field and a riding stable, which was demolished to make way for Haydon Grange, the newer of the two estates.

It was also a popular location for railway photographers taking pictures of trains on the East Coast Main Line.
