Little Easton is a small village in Essex, just two miles from the busy market town of Great Dunmow. Little Easton forms part of The Five Parishes with Chickney, Tilty, Great Easton and Broxted. The village has a population of just a few hundred people, and only one pub, "The Stag", and one church of Norman origin. Little Easton church has fine mediaeval wall paintings and remarkable 17th century stained glass. The North chancel aisle houses the American Chapel, which contains two colourful modern stained glass windows honouring the American bomber crews who flew from the Easton Lodge airfield during the Second World War Easton Lodge was built in 1597. Most of the original house has been destroyed over the years by fires, but the gardens are set in a fourteenth century deer park and include a courtyard, an Italian sunken garden, 150 year old beech trees, terraced borders and a rose walk. The impressive Little Easton Manor is located next door to Little Easton church. Although the house is not open to the public except by prior appointment, its extensive gardens are and there are fountains and a chain of four ornamental lakes which can be used for recreational activities such as course fishing.
