West Littleton is a small hamlet in southern Gloucestershire. It is considered a gem of a village with a farming background. Some houses in the village date back to the 15th century with some possibly even back to the 14th.
Just outside the village is one of the great houses of the county; Dyrham Park.
West Littleton is found between the M4 and the A420. The closest amenities are in Marshfield and across the county border in the City of Bath, a short distance to the south.
The village has only about 25 houses and a population of around 50. There is a working farm, a red telephone box and a church. The Beaufort Hunt regularly uses the village green as a starting point for their hunts though this has been somewhat curtailed due to the legislation banning fox hunting.
