Fordstreet Essex Map

About Fordstreet

Fordstreet lies in the gentle Essex countryside, a place where the land rolls with a quiet persistence. It lies 7.8 km west-north-west of Colchester (from Colchester: bearing 288°T, OS grid TL 920 273), and is situated south-south-west of Fordham village. The air here often carries the scent of damp earth after rain, a subtle perfume that mingles with the distant lowing of cattle. The houses of Fordstreet, many of them rendered in soft, muted tones, seem to absorb the pale English sunlight, their windows reflecting the passing clouds like placid pools. A particular quietude often settles over Fordstreet, a silence broken only by the rustle of leaves or the sharp call of a bird, a stillness that feels as ancient as the fields it surveys.
