Jackson, who had already smashed a shot over the bar, broke the deadlock in the 36th minute as he fired through a sea of defenders.
The second-half onslaught began with Farman keeping out substitute Lorent Tolaj’s free-kick before the Swiss striker hit the post.
Stopper Farman superbly tipped a Jesse Debrah header over the bar before Jayden Stockley nodded against the inside of the post.
Less than a minute later, Ben Garrity crashed a header against the bar.
And, with time running out, Farman produced a great double stop to keep out Debrah and seal the points.
