If you want to find out what is going on this month go to the memorial hall section on the right hand side then click on what on.

Langworth is the core village of a group of five; Langworth, Barlings, Low Barlings, Stainton By Langworth and Newball and it is Langworth that hosts the Memorial Hall, the pubs, post office and various businesses.

Pastoral care is provided by 3 churches, St Hugh’s (Langworth),
St Edward’s (Barlings) and St Johns (Stainton By Langworth).

Personal contact by the Parish Councillors keep us informed as to our young people who are aware as to whom information can be exchanged.  Attempts have come to nothing to re-awaken the Village Hall Youth Club but there is always hope!

With our elderly, normal village awareness is strong and the elderly are served by many friends and residents of the village.  The Wednesday Club and the Memorial Hall offer Coffee mornings/afternoons and the sessions are attracting more visitors every week since plenty of chat and togetherness is provided and the opportunity to ask for help/assistance if required.  Our local District Councillor and Local Police attend one morning a month.

Bingo sessions, Quiz nights, Cabaret evenings, and Beetle Drives are all held regularly in our Memorial Hall.

The Senior Citizens all have an annual Christmas Lunch at no cost to the senior residents, in one of the local hostelries, paid for by fund raising throughout the year and donations for advertising in our local village magazine - the ‘Langworth Local’.

We are served by a fine and regular daily bus service and the Mobility bus and the Wragby Resource Centre Car Scheme is readily available.

The Women’s Institute has talks and visits of all sorts to which non-members are welcome; most village meetings are held in a completely refurbished Memorial Hall of which we are proud.

Toddlers meet on Fridays in the Memorial Hall.

We have a Youth Shelter, Play area and a ‘kick about’ area too.

There is a free bus on Friday to Tesco.

A monthly newsletter ‘Langworth Local’ is issued free to every household in the grouped parish, carrying all sorts of news and advisory points (copies enclosed).

Annual ‘Spring Cleans’ of the village are held with assistance from residents and staff of the local Cool Milk offices.  This usually ends with a friendly get together at one of our pubs with the publican supplying chips!

Daffodil bulbs have been provided by the Parish Council for the last two Autumns and many residents have taken up the offer of bulbs to plant in the verges of our village.

Environmentally, Barlings Abbey, a pinfold and Tree Conservation are all part of Langworth’s heritage.

Two pubs, one either end of the main village, a hatchery, farmers, an outreach Post Office and a garage and transport yard are our main businesses.  We have three Bed and Breakfast accommodations, a Livery, Cattery, 3 sets of fishing lakes, attracting visitors from all over the region, with caravanning facilities to one site.

The Parish Council keeps the parishioners informed of events/happenings by posters on notice boards, the ‘Langworth Local’ and flyers if a vital scenario is mooted.

We feel fortunate to live in a prospering friendly community, which has so much for a population of under 500.  We all take pride in our village and surroundings and to belong and live amongst many friends.
