GV II
Forge, stable and cart shed, now a house. Probably c1870, the
same date as The Old Smithy (qv). Stone rubble; red-brick
window surrounds in rear wall. Slated roofs. 2 small red-brick
chimneys. Plan: the buildings occupy the left side of a yard
with the former smith's house (The Old Smithy (qv)) on the
right. Gable-end on to the road is the former stable with the
forge behind. Beyond that again, set a little over to the
right, so that its gable faces the road, is the former
cart-house with a small room at the rear. A small late C20
entrance-porch has been built in the angle between the forge
and the cart-house. Exterior: originally single-storeyed with
loft over room behind cart-house. Now 2-storeyed, except for
stable. Front openings have flat or slightly curved arches
with well-cut voussoirs; small-paned late C20 wood casements.
Stable has wide doorway to right, window to left. Forge has
long, former louvre with pitched roof on its ridge. Cart-house
has wide doorway in gable-end; double doors with strap-hinges.
INTERIOR inspected on ground floor. Between stable and forge
the original plank door with strap-hinges; top and bottom
halves open separately; a variety of initials, etc, carved on
the planks, chamfered wood frame. Forge retains the stone
rubble base of the original smith's forge; leather bellows
remain in position behind it.
