Longtown Herefordshire Map

About Longtown

Longtown rests in a fold of the Welsh Marches, a place where the land remembers older ways. It lies 21.6 km west-south-west of Hereford (from Hereford: bearing 239°T, OS grid SO 322 289), and is situated south of Upper Maes-coed village. The ancient stones of the parish church, St. Michael and All Angels, stand sentinel, their weathered surfaces catching the low afternoon sun that often spills across these western fields. Here, the air carries the scent of damp earth and the distant bleating of sheep, a constant murmur against the quietude. The village’s roots run deep into the agricultural life of Herefordshire, a landscape of hedgerows and rolling pastures that has shaped its character for centuries.
