Lying approximately four miles to the south west of Preston, Longton is a small rural parish surrounded by farmland and green spaces yet with all the day-to-day amenities you could need and a village church, St Andrew's, dating back to 1887. There are three primary schools – including one rated Outstanding by Ofsted – a library and a health centre and the village centre benefits from many independent shops including several cafes, a few pubs, a post office, chemists, newsagents, hairdressers and an excellent Booths supermarket at its heart. There is a strong community spirit in the village and the vm Sports & Social Club facilities include a function suite, snooker and table tennis tables, darts, crown green bowling and boules pitches. They have summer evening barbecues and supper nights along with live entertainment from local bands and there is also a community cinema. A good place to visit in the area is the Longton Brickcroft Nature Reserve, a site of local conservation importance, with lovely peaceful walks and facilities for fishing, picnics and recreation.
