Description
The Forge House is a mid-18th century house located on the west side of Corbridge Bridge Bank. It is constructed from rubble with roughly-shaped quoins, and features a brick base for the bay window. The roof is made of Welsh slate and has a brick chimney stack. The house is two storeys high and has two irregular bays.
The entrance, which is right of centre, has a renewed door set beneath a timber lintel. To the left, there is a 20th-century canted bay window with small-pane sashes, a small four-pane fire window on the far left, and a renewed twelve-pane sash window above it. On the right side, there is a four-pane casement window with a similar window above, and a blocked first-floor door leading into an adjacent garden at a higher level. The roof is steeply pitched and has a chimney stack on the left end.
The left return of the house, which is visible above the roof of the adjacent forge, features small four-pane casement windows on the first floor and in the attic, as well as a reverse-stepped gable. There is a flat-roofed extension at the rear, which is not of interest.
