Description

Kelston Forge is a village and estate forge built around the 1860s for the Inigo-Jones estate. The structure features coursed rubble walls and a pantile roof with a coped gable end facing the road, complemented by rock-faced quoins. The gable end includes 2-light segmental headed casement windows. On the side elevation, there is a 2-light round-headed casement window to the left of a stable door, with a wide cart entry to the left, all under a segmental head. This building is part of an intact and unaltered mid-Victorian estate village.
