About 1 Ford Road
1 Ford Road is a detached house in Wiveliscombe, Taunton, Taunton (TA4 2NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 477 m² (around 5134 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.

The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
