Fornham St Genevieve as now seen was formed from the Fornham Hall estate, designed by Capability Brown.

The parish church was constructed around the 14th century from rubble flint, and included at least one memorial to the Tyldesley family. It was accidentally burned down on 19 May 1775, reputedly owing to the negligence of a man shooting jack daws that had lodged in the steeple. The remaining tower was Grade II* listed in 1955. Brown visited the estate after the fire and produced details plans for the estate, but died in 1783 before development could begin.[7][8] The manor house at Fornham no longer survives.

Transport

The B1106 is the main road through the village. Owing to an historical accident, there is now a roundabout in which four of the five exits have the same number.[9][10]
