A short way down the valley from Church Stretton, Little Stretton sits under the eastern flank of the Long Mynd. Its best-known building is All Saints, a small black-and-white timber church of 1903 under a thatched roof. The village makes an easy start for walks up onto the hill and into Carding Mill Valley.
