Situated midway between Newcastle-upon-Tyne and Edinburgh in the very heart of Border country, framed by the Cheviot Hills to the south and the famous River Tweed to the north, Ford and Etal Estates comprises 6,000 hectares (15,000 acres) of farmland which, with its picturesque villages, presents an image of rural peace and tranquillity.

LADY WATERFORD HALL
Home of the Waterford Gallery. Commissioned in 1860 by Louisa Anne, Marchionness of Waterford.
This striking building served as the village school until 1957, and is now the Village Hall. Recognised as one of the most interesting and gifted artists of the Victoria era, Lady Waterford spent the years between 1862 and 1883 decorating the walls with life size paintings. They depict children from the school, and people who lived in and around Ford, as characters from well-known biblical scenes.
These unique Northumbrian artworks, together with other works by Lady Waterford and artefacts from her time, can be viewed
