St Bartholomew's Church at Longnor dates from 1780. The nave and chancel have no separation. Longnor is a market town, not a village, but on a small scale. The churchyard is reminiscent of those in Edinburgh with the houses directly overlooking the graves. The gravestones are of slate and so are particularly well preserved.
