The Little England Chapel in Hampton, VA is a historic building that was originally built in the early 1900s as a Methodist Church. In 1943, the church was sold to the Newtown Improvement and Civic Association, which made several renovations to the building and renamed it the Little England Chapel.

The chapel is a small brick building with a gabled roof and a bell tower. Inside, there is a simple sanctuary with wooden pews and stained-glass windows. The chapel also has a small kitchen and a meeting room in the basement.

The Newtown Improvement and Civic Association uses the Little England Chapel as a community center and event space. They host a variety of events throughout the year, including weddings, church services, and community meetings. The association also offers educational programs for children and adults.

In 2002, the Little England Chapel was added to the National Register of Historic Places. It is recognized for its architectural significance and its role in the history of the Newtown community, which was one of the first African American neighborhoods in Hampton. Today, the Little England Chapel continues to serve as an important community and cultural center in Hampton.
