Description
The Forge and the building attached to the west is a structure that likely dates back to the 16th and 17th centuries, with some later alterations. It is constructed from sandstone rubble and timber-frame, featuring plaster and brick infill. The building has a tiled roof with large sandstone and brick stacks located centrally and at the rear. It has a rectangular plan that is aligned west-north-west to east-south-east and consists of one storey and an attic.
The south elevation displays a window arrangement of 1:1:2. On the left side, there are two windows in exposed timber-framed gables, with a late 20th-century window featuring a top vent and glazing bars. The second gable from the left has a late 19th-century two-light casement. To the right, there are two early 20th-century gabled dormers, each with 2-light casements. The ground floor has late 20th-century glazing bar casements on both the left and right sides. The center features two early 20th-century casements, with exposed sandstone visible between the gables.
Access to the building is provided by a diagonally set entry in the right-hand return of the left gable, which has a four-panelled door. There is a second entry on the right side of the other gable. The left gable has a jetty at the first floor level, supported by brackets and a moulded oak cord and tassel motif attached to the corner posts. The right gable features a moulded projecting tie-beam on brackets. The frame is close-studded with single rails on the left and the gables, while the right gable has much heavier scantling than the left. On the right side of the building, there are three square panels situated between the cill and the wall-plate. The interior of the building is not accessible. The western part of the building was formerly known as Sunnyside.
