Forder is a village near Saltash in Cornwall, England.[1]

Forder viaduct was formerly at Milepost 252.25, 1.25 miles (2.0 km) west of Saltash (50°23′42″N 4°13′52″W / 

). It was a Class C viaduct 67 feet (20 m) high and 606 feet (185 m) long on 16 trestles. It was demolished after the line was diverted to a more inland alignment on 19 May 1908, and replaced by a stone viaduct on the new alignment.[2]

The village made headlines after a lorry became wedged between a house and a wall on a narrow street after the driver took a wrong turning on the morning of 30 September 2024.[3]
