The village has a population of around 1,000 people and is surrounded by beautiful countryside, making it a popular destination for walkers and cyclists.

The village has a rich history, with evidence of human settlement dating back to the Bronze Age. In the 11th century, Little Burstead was recorded in the Domesday Book as "Burstede", and it was owned by the Bishop of London.
