Description

The Forge is a smithy, likely built in the early 19th century. It features coursed rubble limestone with stone slate eaves courses beneath pantile roofs. The building is two storeys high and has two windows on the first floor. To the left, there is a single-storey addition that is set back and includes two large doorways and a window. The main workshop, which likely occupies what was once a house, has an old central door with a deep lintel, flanked by horizontally-sliding sash windows with glazing bars, projecting sills, and deep lintels. There are two similar windows on the first floor. The building has kneelers and ashlar gable copings, with a 20th-century stack at the right end and an old brick external stack on the left. The addition to the left has two boarded garage doors and a window to the right with a projecting sill and boarded shutter, topped with a hipped roof.

Inside, the two-storey section is open to the roof and contains a forge against the right gable, along with a full set of workshop fittings, including some early 19th-century wall cupboards.
