Stewart Christopher Littlewood (7 January 1905 – 2 February 1977) was an English footballer. He played 55 games (53 in the league) and scored 35 league goals for Port Vale.
Littlewood played for Hardwich Colliery, Chesterfield, Matlock Town, Sheffield Wednesday, Luton Town and had a trial at Alfreton Town before joining Port Vale in November 1926. He scored a brace on his debut at Clapton Orient on Christmas Day 1926, but despite being a consistent scorer struggled to remain in the first team. For the 1927–28 season he scored 55 in goals in 33 reserve games, but was transferred to Oldham Athletic in exchange for Albert Pynegar and £1,300 in January 1929. He was re-signed by new manager Tom Morgan for a then-club record fee but never really managed to find his scoring touch other than on 24 September 1932, when he put a club record six goals past Chesterfield. The following month he underwent a cartilage operation and was transferred to Bournemouth & Boscombe Athletic in July 1933, he later played for Altrincham.[1]
