Description
The Old Smithy is an 18th-century cottage with an added 19th-century bay. It is constructed of brick with tile hanging, an old plain tile roof, and a slate roof to the later bay. The original two-bay, one-and-a-half-story cottage has a lower-pitched roof on its right side. The front facade features a central planked door within a timber porch. To either side are two-light casement windows with segmental heads, and a two-light flat-roofed dormer window. The roof is half-hipped on the left, with a two-flued stack positioned above the door. The 19th-century bay to the right has a planked door within an open timber porch, a gabled bay window, and a 20th-century window above, all under a low-pitched roof with a stack in front of the ridge. To the left of the cottage stands the original 18th-century smithy, with three bays, a door in the center, and windows in the end bays; its roof is half-hipped at one end. The interior forge remains.
