Built-up area in Northumberland, England

Coordinates:55.244, -1.769
OS grid ref:NZ 14 94
Population:887

Longhorsley is a compact village in Northumberland, set in gently rolling farmland a few miles west of Morpeth. It feels typically Northumbrian with stone cottages and hedged fields, giving easy access to quiet lanes and country walks while sitting within commuting distance of larger urban centres such as Newcastle upon Tyne.

The village retains a strong local identity: a parish church, a village hall and at least one traditional pub act as social hubs, and the local economy is still rooted in agriculture alongside residents who commute for work. Longstanding community groups and occasional village events keep a close-knit, rural character, while scattered historic buildings and field patterns hint at its long agricultural past.
