Little Load hums with a quiet agricultural life, the land around it a patchwork of fields that catch the low Somerset sun. It lies 4.8 km south-south-west of Somerton (from Somerton: bearing 203°T, OS grid ST 468 241), and is situated north-north-east of Long Load village. The air here often carries the scent of turned earth and distant woodsmoke, a familiar perfume to those who know this part of the county. Little Load itself is a scattering of homes, their roofs a mix of traditional thatch and pantile, gathered around lanes that seem to follow the contours of the land rather than imposing straight lines. A modest stream, perhaps the inspiration for the 'Load' in its name, winds its way nearby, its banks often lined with the bright yellow of marsh marigolds in spring. The quietude of Little Load speaks of a long lineage of farming families, their lives measured by the turning seasons and the quiet growth of crops.
