Orford House, Grade II* listed house in Ugley, England

Orford House stands along Cambridge Road with classical Georgian architectural elements, balanced proportions, and symmetrical windows across its facade.

Built around 1700 for Edward Russell, First Lord of the Admiralty, the house underwent expansion in 1750 under the ownership of Isaac Whittington.

The building exemplifies the architectural preferences of English nobility during the early eighteenth century with its formal design and grand proportions.

The property functions as a residential care facility managed by Home Farm Trust, providing support for individuals with learning disabilities since 1983.

The house passed through the hands of several notable British families, including the Chamberlaynes and Tennants, before its conversion to social care.
