Longtown is a sought-after Herefordshire village surrounded by stunning countryside and views towards the Black Mountains. The village offers a range of everyday amenities including a shop, post office, public house, primary school and thriving community, while providing excellent access to some of the area's finest walking, cycling and outdoor pursuits. The popular market town of Hay-on-Wye is just a short drive away, with the cathedral city of Hereford offering a wider range of shopping, leisure and educational facilities.

Directions:
Beginning at Longtown Village Hall, turn right and, after 440m, at the junction, turn left towards The Crown Inn, then turn left again. Pass Hopes Village Shop on the right-hand side of the road, exit the village and keep to the single-lane county road for around 270m. After the hump-back bridge over a stream, take the right-hand turning towards Ewyas Harold and stay on this road for approximately one kilometre, before taking the right-hand turning onto a track, denoted as Brook Farm. Around one kilometre past the farm buildings and the old Farmhouse will be at the end of the track on the left hand side.

CGI imagery has been prepared to illustrate the reinstatement of what the restoration could look like. Interested parties should refer to the legal pack for full information before bidding.
