Hiking

Longshaw Lodge was built around 1827 as a shooting retreat for the Duke of Rutland, a grand "shooting box" for his guests, including King George V. It later served as an auxiliary hospital during the First World War, providing therapy and using local moss for dressings. After the war, it became a holiday guesthouse before being converted into private flats in 1969. The Longshaw Estate, where the lodge is located, was purchased by the people of Sheffield and donated to the National Trust in 1931.
