Where to Photograph Featured 5* Fords

We are attempting to list all places where photographers can photograph the most picturesque Fords within the UK. This list concentrates on what we term as the best photographically. This is the start of a list that will both grow over time and hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information.

Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked this links to a Location page with more information on this site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of you would like to also produce location pages.

We have a larger listing by county of all Fords we have been able to identify within the UK that are graded by us from 1 to 5 where 5 is the most photogenic.

The column Type are when blank a river Ford, TD = Tidal Ford, IB = Irish Bridge (water only over road after rain), WL = Wet lane (where a stream and lane share the same space).
