Blacksmith’s Forge
The blacksmith was considered one of the most important craftsmen in the community. For the farmer he made and repaired spades, ploughs, shovels, slanes, forks, sickles, scythes, gates, bolts, hasps and hinges. The forge was a regular meeting place for the men of the locality where they were brought up-to-date on the latest news of local interest or of happenings further afield.
