The Little Sugar Loaf is situated northeastwards from the Great Sugar Loaf, but separated by the N11 [road |N11] dual carriageway. The northern side of Little Sugar Loaf directly overlooks the town of Bray; the eastern side looks across the R761 between Bray and Greystones to the western slope of Bray Head. Little Sugar Loaf has a distinctive profile of a rocky double summit. Like the Great Sugar Loaf, it consists of Cambrian Period quartzite bedrock.
Irish academic Paul Tempan notes that the Irish name Giolspar is likely a translation of the English "gilt spur", based on a record of a 12th-century transaction by Diarmait Mac Murchada of land in the area which involved the payment of a pair of "gilt spurs" to him and his heirs on an annual basis.
