House Hayford of Hayford is a noble house from the Crownlands. It is sworn directly to King's Landing. Their blazon is green fetty over gold, a green pale wavy.[1]

The current head and of the house is Lady Ermesande, a baby. She is the last of her line. She was made to marry Tyrek Lannister so the Lannisters could claim their lands. Tyrek disappeared in a riot before the marriage could be consummated and is assumed dead.

The Hayford is situated on a hill in the Crownlands region, less than a day's ride from King's Landing. It seems that the war has not touched the Hayford lands much, although one of their vassals, House Hogg, was raided by forces under Ser Amory Lorch.
