Longwood is a historic plantation house located near Milton, Caswell County, North Carolina. The original section was built about 1810, and is a two-story, four bay by one bay Federal style frame block. It has a two bay wide and one bay deep Greek Revival style addition forming an overall "L"-shaped dwelling. The interior features woodwork attributed to noted African-American cabinetmaker Thomas Day. Also on the property are the frame kitchen, log corn crib, log tenant house, and log tobacco barn.
