The Old Forge

The Old Forge is a row of three cottages, now functioning as two, dating from the late 17th century and altered in the 19th and 20th centuries. The cottages are built from coursed limestone rubble and feature plain tile roofs from the 20th century, with brick stacks at the ends. The structure is two stories high and has a six-window range.

No. 9, located on the left, is a two-unit lobby-entry plan house. It has a 20th-century pebble-dashed gabled porch on the left, a nine-pane sash window to the right of the porch, a small one-light window at the far right on the ground floor, and a nine-pane sash window on the first floor to the left, all with wooden lintels. There is a blocked window on the first floor to the right, and a 19th-century two-story, one-window extension at the left end with sash windows.

The Old Forge, situated to the right, has painted stonework and originally consisted of two cottages. The left half features a 20th-century glazed door to the left, two-light casement windows on both the ground and first floors, and a small fire window on the ground floor to the right, all with wooden lintels. The two-story, two-window portion on the right has a four-panel door and two-light casement windows on both floors, also with wooden lintels. Inside No. 9, there is a stop-chamfered spine beam.
