Fordhall Organic Farm

Take a trip back in time on the Telford Steam Railway – as a passenger or driver – then visit the ruins of Moreton Corbet Castle or the gardens of Cholmondeley Castle, all within 30 minutes’ drive of Fordhall. To keep one foot in the past on a day out with a difference, head over to Ironbridge Gorge Museums, 30 minutes from the site, to step into the abandoned clay pipe factory and cross the Severn on the world’s first cast-iron bridge. Another excellent option is to xplore the homes of the well-heeled at the Darby houses and live like the Victorians did in the Blists Hill recreated town. For some outdoor adventuring, explore the woods, caves and historic monuments at Hawkstone Park Follies 10 minutes from Fordhall, or do something a little more exotic with a visit to Hoo Farm Animal Kingdom and Monkey Forest, both 30 minutes away.
