Rose Cottage, Long Marton
An 18C house, Grade II listed. It has a double-span roof disguised by the raising of the wall between the chimneys. The round-headed window is a fake, painted onto the wall quite convincingly. One of the unofficial 'red squirrel' signs that are quite common in Cumbria has been fastened to the electricity pole.

The Institute, Long Marton
This was built in 1893, due to the generosity of Rev. Hay Erskine who provided the £750 to build the Institute out of his own pocket, and endowed it with a sum of £200 per annum. The building was open from 8am to 10pm every day except Sunday, when it was open from 2pm to 5pm. There was a reading room with books and newspapers, and a recreation room with a public room upstairs for sales and lectures. A wide range of courses was offered, such as nursing, veterinary surgery, drawing, and music including church choir practices. It is still used for meetings and functions. It is a pity that the appearance has been spoilt by the blocking of a large window in the gable-end.

The village street, Long Marton
The houses on the left are colour-washed in shades that go well with the red sandstone of the 18C barn and farmhouse to the right. Opposite these there is an old-style red telephone box. In the distance the Institute can be seen, and to its right the white wall of Rose Cottage.

Methodist Chapel,Long Marton
This chapel, built in 1818, appears to be disused (judging by the skip in the passage at the side), but not yet converted to another use. The houses on the right may have been built at the same time, to give the chapel an income from rents.
