They say that Branscombe Forge in Devon is the oldest thatched working forge in the country, which is quite something. You think – blacksmiths have worked here for over 400 years, and its currently run by a third generation blacksmith. The essential fabric of the building probably hasn’t changed all that much in that time – still the thick stone rubble walls, the low heavy thatch, and the open shelter at the front where the blacksmiths would have shod the horses back in the day.

Lovely Forge where you can watch a smith working and buy hand made products.
