Old Station Buildings, Longridge

The Old Station Buildings These buildings, dating from 1872, were renovated in 2010 to celebrate the importance of the Preston and Longridge Railway and to provide a new community facility for the town. The gravity railway opened in 1840 and was converted to steam traction in 1848. Passenger services operated until 1930 and goods traffic continued until 1967.
