Long Marston is a village and civil parish in the Harrogate district of North Yorkshire, England. It is situated on the B1224 road from Wetherby to York, 7 miles (11 km) west of York. The Battle of Marston Moor was fought just west of the village.
The village has a junior school, a public house (The Sun Inn) and until 2008 had a Methodist church, which has since closed due to dwindling attendances. The village has a Village Hall and Playing Fields, which is also home to the two cricket teams which compete in the Wetherby Cricket league
