Longsdon is a small village in the Staffordshire Moorlands district of Staffordshire, England, lying a short distance from the market town of Leek. It sits amid rolling farmland and moorland on the edge of the Peak District hinterland, so the setting is popular with walkers and offers rural views while remaining within easy reach of larger towns and transport links.
The settlement has a quietly historic, agricultural character with traditional stone cottages and 19th‑century buildings, and the local economy is a mix of farming, small businesses and commuters to nearby towns. Socially it's a close‑knit village with a village hall, church and local clubs that help maintain a strong community spirit, while nearby trails and countryside draw occasional visitors.
