About Longlane

Longlane, a hamlet in South Derbyshire, breathes the quiet air of the East Midlands. It lies 10.1 km west of Derby (from Derby: bearing 279°T, OS grid SK 251 380), and is situated north-west of Lees village. The gentle rise and fall of the surrounding fields, a patchwork of arable land and verdant pasture, often catch the soft, diffused light of an English afternoon, lending a certain luminescence to the landscape. In the heart of Longlane, a cluster of stone-built dwellings huddles around a modest green, where the ancient oaks stand as silent witnesses to the passage of seasons. Though no grand abbey or bustling market square defines its core, Longlane possesses a subtle charm, a quiet dignity in its unassuming presence. The air here carries the faint scent of damp earth and distant woodsmoke, a testament to the enduring connection between the people and the land they inhabit.
