Longridge: the gateway to the forest of Bowland

Longridge is a small town just north of Preston but its surrounding area is where its scale changes. The market town lies on the edge of one of Britain’s most remote areas of outstanding natural beauty. The villages of Chipping, Whitewell and Newton in Bowland with their high class country pubs are only a short drive away and with fantastic walks such as Longridge and Beacon fells as well as the Tolkien trail in the area, make Longridge you next staycation spot or day trip. #lancashire #forest
