Description
The Blacksmith's Arms Restaurant is an inn and former smithy that has been converted into a restaurant. It dates from the early 18th century for the smithy and the late 18th century for the inn, with the buildings being adapted for their current use in 1967. The structure is made of squared limestone and features pantile and slate roofs along with brick stacks.
The former inn has a two-storey, three-window front, while the left side has a two-storey, two-window former smithy, and there is a single-storey outbuilding at the far left. The inn's entrance consists of a door with six recessed panels beneath a timber lintel. To the left of the door are two small-pane bow windows that have been inserted. To the right of the door and on the first floor are three large-pane horizontal-sliding sash windows with timber lintels and no sills. The gables are coped with shaped kneelers, and there are stacks at the ends and right of the centre.
The former smithy features stable doors beneath timber lintels at each end, with a small-pane bow window to the right of the left-hand door. The other windows are three-light, large-pane horizontal-sliding sashes with timber lintels. It also has a coped gable and shaped kneeler at the left end, along with a centre stack. The outbuilding has a 20th-century board door flanked by two-light, small-pane horizontal-sliding sashes, all with timber lintels.
Inside the former inn, the area to the left of the door reveals exposed chamfered spine beams and chamfered square-section joists. The former smithy has quarter-round moulded joists throughout, and remnants of the forge are retained in the room to the left. On the first floor, a single pair of raised crucks can be seen at the collar.
