The Old Forge

The Old Forge, located at 26 Amersham High Street, is a 16th-century building that has been refaced. The ground floor is made of modern red brick, while the upper part is rendered. It features an old tiled roof with a gable on the left side. On the ground floor, there is a seven-light leaded casement window to the left of a two-panelled shutter door, and a three-light casement window with shutters on the right. The first floor jetties out on exposed corbels and moulded beams, with two three-light leaded casement windows. The west gable displays exposed timber framing and a large projecting brick chimney stack with wide tiled offsets at the ground floor level. There is a lower rear wing constructed of timber framing and brick, topped with a hipped tiled roof and a leaded casement window.
