Each year Longdon takes part in the Staffordshire’s
Best Kept Village competition, held by Staffordshire County Council.
Judging generally takes place between the 1st of May and the 22nd

 The most coveted accolade is best large and best small village "overall county winner", where upon the winners receive a sign post shield to display in their village; something Longdon won just a few years ago. |
