Little Britain is the name given to the lake that lies between Cowley, Greater London, and Iver, in the county of Buckinghamshire, in England. It is part of the Colne Valley Regional Park, which covers the Colne Valley area. The name is often given informally to the lake, which approximately resembles the shape of the British Isles, and the many small islands within this lake.

The lake is of note for the number of less common water birds present, such as Gadwall and Great Crested Grebe,as well as many of the more common species such as Mute Swan and Grey Heron.The lake is in between the Frays River, and the River Colne.
