The Forge Farmhouse

The Forge Farmhouse is a late 17th-century house, extended in the 20th century. It is timber-framed and plastered, with a weatherboarded dado and a roof of handmade red plain tiles. The house has a four-bay lobby-entrance plan, facing southeast, with an axial stack and a 20th-century rear extension. It is one storey high with attics.

On the ground floor, there are two 19th-century horizontal sash windows of eight lights and one 20th-century casement. Three 20th-century casements are set within lean-to dormers. A plain boarded door is contained within a 20th-century rustic porch. The roof is hipped and has a gambrel shape.

The front of the house has incomplete 18th-century chevron plasterwork in panels. Above the door is a plaster panel decorated with stars and bearing the date 1661. Inside, there are chamfered axial beams and plain vertical joists joined to them with soffit tenons and diminished haunches.
