Langley Toll Cottage
The white cottage is on the A69, which was originally a turnpike road. The road was built and maintained by the Carlisle and Brampton Turnpike Trust (in operation 1828-1876). To recover their investment, the trustees installed gates with toll collectors along the route. No doubt the toll cottage will have been much altered since those days.
