Longham is a village in Dorset, South West England, positioned just north of the large conurbation of Bournemouth and Poole, and close to the town of Ferndown. It is perhaps best known for the Longham Lakes, a significant area for wildlife and fishing, formed around a water treatment works adjacent to the River Stour. While retaining some village character, its location on the A348 main road means it is well-connected and serves as a residential area within the wider urban fringe. The village offers a quieter setting while remaining accessible to the amenities of the nearby towns.
