Fordhall Farm
Fordhall Farm is an organic farm of 128 acres, in Market Drayton in North Shropshire, England. It is owned by an industrial and provident society, the Fordhall Community Land Initiative (FCLI), whose aim is to use the farm for community benefit. The farm became a cause célèbre in 2005, when a campaign to raise funds for FCLI to purchase the land gained national press attention.
Within the boundaries of the farm are the remains (earthworks) of Fordhall castle, a scheduled Norman ringwork-and-bailey castle.
==History==
The ringwork was first noted as recently as 1950, although the name of its location, Castlehill Wood, certainly predates the 20th century.〔http://castlefacts.info/contentpages/castledetails/castledetails.asp?castleid=3268 Accessed 19 May 2012〕 The ringwork has been identified with Moretoin Castle, attested in 1215 〔http://www.gatehouse-gazetteer.info/English%20sites/3153.html Accessed 19 May 2012〕 and possibly the castle mentioned by the antiquary Leland as 'Draiton apon Terne'.〔http://castlefacts.info/contentpages/castledetails/castledetails.asp?castleid=3268 Accessed 19 May 2012〕 It is a monument scheduled under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 ("Ringwork and bailey castle 390m west of Buntingsdale Hall, List entry Number 1019659")
The farm was formerly part of the Buntingsdale Hall estate, which was broken up in the 20th century. The tenant was an early adopter of organic farming practice, as well as being one of the first producers of yoghurt in the United Kingdom 〔http://www.fordhallfarm.com/about_fordhall.php?pid=7 Accessed 19 May 2012〕〔The Farmer, the Plough and the Devil: The Story of Fordhall Farm, Pioneer of Organic Farming Publisher: Ellingham Press; 3rd edition 2006 ISBN 978-0954756031〕
