OUR STORY
LORFORDS HAS BEEN A CONTINUALLY EVOLVING PROJECT SINCE 2001...
Toby Lorford escaped London and the trappings of broadcast and PR at the end of the 90s, slowly following his father's footsteps in buying and selling old things. By 2003 the first Lorfords Antiques shop was trading in Tetbury... two years later Lorfords moved into its home at 30 Long Street and has never looked back.
