Description
Longridge is a house dating from the middle and late 18th century. It is constructed of squared coursed ironstone with a Collyweston slate roof. Originally designed with a three-unit plan, the house now has a symmetrical two-storey, four-window front, featuring 19th and 20th century casement windows set beneath wooden lintels. A 20th century door and porch are located to the left of centre. A matching rear wing was added in the late 18th century. The building has ashlar stacks situated below the ridge. The interior has not been inspected, but it is likely to contain remains of open fireplaces.
