  Location of Ford Green Hall in Staffordshire | |
Ford Green Hall is a Grade II* listed farmhouse[1] and historic house museum in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire. The oldest parts of the house date from the late 16th century, with one wing being either added or greatly repaired at some point in the early 18th century. In its grounds, there also stands an 18th-century dovecote which shares the listed building status of the main farmhouse.[1]
The house stands on land adjacent to the B5051 minor road in the east of Smallthorne. Originally, it stood in 36 acres (150,000 m2) of farmland, but this has been gradually encroached upon over the years so that now it is surrounded by comparatively small grounds. Beyond its grounds there is now housing and a nature reserve.[2]
Journalists often confuse the Hall with the arson-hit Ford Green House. The House is the city's oldest home and also in Smallthorne, but it is not the same as the Hall.
