The Compasses Inn

Littley Green is a hamlet in the civil parish of Great Waltham, and the Chelmsford borough of Essex, England. The hamlet is at the extreme north of Great Waltham, with the nearest settlement the hamlet of Hartford End, less than 1 mile west in the civil parish of Felsted.

At the northwest edge of the hamlet and within the parish is the 319 acres (1.3 km2) residential farm of Littley Park. The house is timber framed and plastered, dates to the 16th century, and is Grade II listed.[1] Littley Park was in the possession of Richard Rich (1496/7 – 1567), Lord Chancellor and founder of Felsted School, who gained the property after the suppression of the monasteries. It was put up for sale in 2017 at a guide price of above £5m.[2]

Littley Green has a public house called The Compasses Inn.
