Horsham (incl. Horsham & Worthing, and Horsham & Crawley seats) has been continuously represented by a Tory since 1880, possibly further back - Wikipedia isn't sure!!
The seat that Dorking has resided in is probably a good contender for continuous Tory representation as well.
There is probably quite a long list of seats that have never been represented by Labour (helped by the fact that the Labour Party became a serious political force in the 1920s in terms of seats), whilst I suspect the Conservative list is somewhat shorter due to the rotten state of democracy pre-Reform Acts.
