The Old Smithy

The Old Smithy is a 17th or early 18th century cottage, originally used as a smithy. It has a colour-washed front wall constructed of stone, with a timber-framed rear wall, and a thatched roof. The main western part of the building has a three-room plan, with a back-to-back hearth separating the eastern two rooms. It is a one-storey building with attics. The front elevation features two three-light casement windows and two two-light casement windows on the ground floor, and three gabled dormers, each with a two-light casement window. An east-facing extension, formerly the forge, is one storey high.
