Little Melton is a small village and civil parish in the district of South Norfolk, in the county of Norfolk, England, lying a few miles south‑west of Norwich and close to Great Melton. It sits in gently rolling arable countryside typical of the region, with a mix of older cottages and modern homes that reflect its evolution from a traditional farming settlement into a popular commuter spot for the city.
Locally the village retains a strong community feel, centred on its village hall, parish church and occasional events such as the summer fête; there are also a number of historic buildings and farmsteads that hint at medieval and agricultural roots. Its quiet lanes, hedgerows and nearby Norfolk lanes make it attractive for walkers and those seeking a rural base within easy reach of Norwich’s amenities.
