Little Sutton is a small civil parish, containing a few farms and a few houses, lying between the much larger parishes of Long Sutton and Sutton Bridge, in Lincolnshire, England.
For Parliamentary, County, and District elections, the parish is taken together with its bigger sibling, Long Sutton. Purely parish matters are dealt with by a parish meeting.[2] On South Holland District Council, it is part of the Long Sutton ward, with Lutton and Tydd.[3] At the 2001 census, 100% of the parish was white, with 87% describing themselves as Christian.
The parish boundary with Long Sutton stretches as far north as Yellow House. West of Maze Farm (outside the parish) it meets Sutton Bridge. It follows Hospital Drove southwards, crossing Woad Lane, past Common Farm. It crosses Bridge Road, the former A17, then further south crosses the busy A17 close to where the pylon line crosses. As Hospital Drove, the boundary meets Tydd St Mary at the South Holland Main Drain. At the A1101 bridge over the drain, it meets Long Sutton, and follows the A1101 Wisbech Road northwards. For 300 metres, it follows Woodward's Lane eastwards, then passes northwards across the A17, west of Hope House. At Hundreds Lane, it passes northwards along the west side of the Premier Foods factory.
