The Old Smithy

The Old Smithy and Smithy Cottage is an early 19th-century former school and an attached former smithy built in 1860. The building is constructed from grey coursed rubble stone and has slate roofs. The former school features stone end wall stacks, with the one on the left being larger. It is two storeys high and has a three-window front that includes three large pointed casement windows above, which are 9-pane with steep traceried heads, stone voussoirs, and slate sills. On the ground floor, there is a ledged door to the left and a 9-pane casement window in the centre, both with stone voussoirs and cambered heads. To the right, there is a blocked cart-entry with a broad depressed arch, stone voussoirs, and a keystone, along with inserted 20th-century 4-light casements. A whitewashed rendered 20th-century addition is located to the left, and there are large additions at the rear southeast.

The smithy is a single-storey, double-fronted structure that has 20th-century windows on each side of a stable door, with stone voussoirs and keystones above the cambered heads. There is a similar window on the east end wall. The front has a lean-to made of corrugated iron. Inside, there is a broad rear door, two hearths located in the southeast and southwest corners, a slate flagged floor, and a collar-truss roof. A large 20th-century addition is located behind the smithy.
