Ford Green Hall is a 17th-century Staffordshire farmhouse museum in Stoke-on-Trent, bringing the year 1624 to life. You can step inside real period rooms to discover how families once cooked, worked, stayed healthy and learned new skills, meeting characters such as the farming family and the local surgeon along the way. Hands-on activities make it especially good for families exploring history together, and there's also a Georgian tea room with low beams and tiled floors to relax in afterwards. The site hosts events, education sessions and even weddings. Nearest rail access is Longport station, 2.2 miles away, and with 38 bookable places to stay within 5 miles, it's easy to combine a visit with a longer stay in the area.
