Where to Photograph Fords in Wales

We are attempting to list all places where photographers can photograph Fords within the UK. This is the start of a list that will both grow over time and hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information.

We have GRADEd the Fords from a photographic perspective from 1-5 with

  • 5 being the Best Photographically and must go and photograph

  • 4 worth visiting and definitely should be visited if you are passing

  • 3 wouldn't consider doing a special trip, but worth visiting when passing

  • 2 if passing take a look

  • 1 being not very interesting and in most cases only a puddle or no water to be seen during summer months.

Our grading system is completely based on the photogenic nature of the location and ford, therefore this differs from some other lists that grade fords according to the challenge of taking a 4x4 vehicle through.

Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked this links to a Location page with more information on this site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of you would like to also produce location pages.

Type: Blank = a river Ford,  IB = Irish Bridge (water only over road after rain),  TD = Tidal Road/Causeway,
WL = Wet lane (where a stream and lane share the same space). We have still to identify all of the Wet Lanes.
