near Colchester, Essex, England

A village of about 800 inhabitants, 6 miles north west of Colchester. It has its fine church, All Saints, two pubs, the Shoulder of Mutton and the Three Horse Shoes and one Village Stores, incorporating the Post Office. In 2001, over 500 acres of Fordham land was donated to the Woodland Trust for the creation of a woodland environment.

This unofficial website will tell you something of Fordham and its people. It includes some of our history, some pictures of our interesting sights, details of activities of the several clubs and local organisations, dates and agendas for parish council meetings, announcements of forthcoming events and attractions, etc.

There is further information to be found by clicking on any underlined word or words - and on some of the pictures.

The Woodland Trust update is available here.
