LANGDON, a place in the uplands of Durham, near the boundary with Yorkshire; 7 miles N W by W of Middleton-in-Teesdale. It has an inn, and offers a retreat to tourists passing on from High Force to Caldron Snout. A streamlet running past it to the Tees, is called Langdon-beck; and a contiguous large expanse of upland is called Langdon-beck Common.
(John Marius Wilson, Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales (1870-72))
