Longford Derbyshire Map

About Longford

Longford rests in a gentle fold of the Derbyshire Dales landscape. It lies 9.7 km south-south-east of Ashbourne (from Ashbourne: bearing 158°T, OS grid SK 218 378), and is situated south-west of Hollington village. The fields surrounding Longford often catch the afternoon sun in a way that lends a warm, golden hue to the already verdant pastures, a sight that has likely changed little through the centuries. The village church, a stoic presence with its ancient stone, anchors the heart of Longford, its spire a quiet sentinel against the vast expanse of the East Midlands sky. Life here moves with a steady, understated grace, a quiet continuation of the agricultural rhythms that have shaped this corner of England. The very air seems to carry the faint scent of damp earth and growing things, a subtle perfume of the countryside.
