The Ford: Many villagers will know that the slope down to the river between Norris' Bridge and Sillence House is in fact the original ford.

We need to confirm that the ford has always been known as such and has been kept free of obstructions on the Twyford side. Please call Viv Brooks on 01962 715077 or click here to send a message.
