Longworth, Lancashire
Longworth was a township of the civil and ecclesiastical parish of Bolton le Moors in the Salford hundred of Lancashire, England.
==History==
The township was recorded as Longeworthe in 1254, Lunggewrthe in 1278 and Longeworth in 1290. The Old English suffix ''worth'' denotes an enclosure or enclosed settlement.
The manor was held of the lords of Manchester as two oxgangs of land by families which assumed the local surname. Longworths lived there from the Middle Ages until the mid 17th century. Matthew, son of Siward de Longworth, made a grant of land to Cockersand Abbey about the beginning of the 13th century otherwise there is little recorded about the family. Pedigrees were entered at the heraldic visitations in 1567 and 1613. Christopher Longworth died in 1608, holding land and a water mill. Thomas Longworth and Dorothy his wife made a settlement of the manor of Longworth in 1632. After that the manor was sold, probably to the Lacys who recorded a pedigrees in 1664. No house in the township had more than two hearths in 1666, except Thomas Lacy's, which had seven out of a total of twenty-one. In 1738 Longworth is named in a settlement of the estates of William Hulton of Over Hulton.〔
In 1907 the township was purchased by the Bolton Corporation to build the Delph reservoir. There was a quarry and a cotton mill which was demolished by Bolton Corporation when they bought the land.〔
