Long Marton is a rural civil parish and village in Westmorland and Furness, England, set on the western edge of the Eden Valley with rolling pasture, drystone walls and views towards the Pennines. It lies a few miles west of Appleby-in-Westmorland and has a dispersed pattern of hamlets and farmsteads rather than a single, dense centre.
The locality has deep agricultural roots and several historic stone houses and a medieval parish church that reflect its long history; today farming remains central alongside small-scale tourism, outdoor recreation and some commuting to larger towns. A tight-knit community maintains a village hall and regular local events, so the landscape and heritage continue to shape social and economic life in the parish.
