Longdown village centre

About half a mile south of the village is the 836 yard long Perridge Tunnel, through which the Teign Valley Railway Line ran until it closed in 1958. The tunnel is now blocked by a collapse,[1] but the nearby Longdown railway station was reported as being in good condition in 2006.[2]
