A hamlet is a small human settlement. In different jurisdictions and geographies, a hamlet may be the size of a town, village or parish, or may be considered to be a smaller settlement or subdivision or satellite entity to a larger settlement.

In British geography, a hamlet is considered smaller than a village and distinctly without a church or other place of worship.
