Little Longstone is a village and civil parish in the Derbyshire Dales district, in the county of Derbyshire, England. The village is on a minor road west of Great Longstone, just off the B6465 road from Wardlow to Ashford-in-the-Water.[1] There is a Grade-II-listed Congregational Chapel[2] and a public house, the Packhorse Inn,[3] in the village. As in many small parishes, there is no parish council and local democracy is administered via a parish meeting.[4] In 2001 the parish had a population of 103.
The parish includes parts of Monsal Dale and the hamlet of Monsal Head, and lies wholly within the Peak District National Park. The Monsal Trail, a popular cycleway and footpath following a section of the former Manchester, Buxton, Matlock and Midlands Junction Railway,[5] runs just south of the village.[1]
