Description

The premises belonging to H. Irwin and Son is an early 19th-century smithy that was extended in the later 19th century. It is constructed from squared tooled stone with tooled-and-margined dressings and features a Scottish slate roof. The building is single-storey and has four bays. The right part of the structure is the original smithy, which includes a central centre-hinged stable door set in an alternating-block surround, a 12-pane fixed window to the left, and a pair of 12-pane iron-framed casements to the right. The added left bay contains an 18-pane Yorkshire sash window set in a former doorway, with a similar window to the left. The roof is hipped. On the right return, there are two blocked segmental arches with 20th-century small-paned casements inserted.
