Description
The Smithy is a blacksmith's workshop, likely built in the early 19th century. It is a small single-storey building constructed from coursed stone and features a steeply pitched pantile roof with gabled ends. On the left side, there is a 19th-century three-light casement window with glazing bars. The right side has a wide doorway fitted with boarded stable doors. A central brick chimney stack is present, and inside, there is a central hearth along with blacksmith's tools.

It experiences an average of 32 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 60% of listed buildings. Of these, 15 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
