Little Neston is a residential village south of Neston and situated on the Wirral Peninsula, Cheshire, England. Little Neston is administratively part of Cheshire West and Chester and had a population of 3,390 at the 2001 Census.

The settlement was mentioned in the Domesday Book as Little Nestone.

Together with Neston, it is a former mining village, with shafts dug out underneath the River Dee. The slag heaps from these mining operations were open to the public and locally known as the 'Black Hills'. In the last few years, however, they have been fenced off to allow sheep to graze.

The marshes of the River Dee are popular with bird watchers and horticulturalists because of the wide range of flora and fauna to be found in the area.

Lord Nelson's mistress, Emma Hamilton, was born in nearby Ness and is remembered locally with the Lady Hamilton pub.
