About Forder

The rural charm of Forder is evident in its tranquil setting, where verdant fields meet the gentle Cornish landscape. It lies 1.9 km west-south-west of Saltash (from Saltash: bearing 245°T, OS grid SX 411 581). Historically, Forder would have been part of a wider agricultural community, its existence tied to the fertile land of the Tamar Valley. While no grand abbeys or castles mark its immediate vicinity, the surrounding countryside offers picturesque walks and a sense of timelessness. The proximity to Saltash means Forder benefits from easy access to amenities while retaining its peaceful, rural character. The local economy would have traditionally revolved around farming and perhaps small-scale trades supporting the agricultural needs of the area.
