On The Heritage Highway, Longford was settled in 1813 and retains original churches, colonial cottages and Georgian buildings, some with their stables intact and many constructed by convict labour.
English-style countryside surrounding the town is dotted with working farms which date back to settlement, including Woolmers Estate, with its epic story of the rise and fall of a colonial farming dynasty.
Gardens Brickendon are listed on the National Estate register.
