Little Maplestead once had a Knights Hospitaller establishment called Little Maplestead Preceptory. The round parish church, dedicated to St John the Baptist, is one of only four medieval round churches in England now surviving. The circular nave has an arcade of six bays. The church dates from around 1335 but was practically rebuilt 1849–55. It was built by the Knights Hospitallers. The church is a Grade II* listed building. Some restoration took place in the 1850s, but the original design and composition of the rotunda that forms the nave remains, as do many of the earlier fittings.
