The Old Forge At Totnes - Totnes

The beautifully converted stone buildings once housed the blacksmith, wheelwright, carpenter and coachbuilder. There were haybarns and apple stores, and cider-making too. An upstairs courtroom and lock-up cell allowed miscreants to be tried by the travelling magistrates with those convicted being locked up and clapped in irons by the blacksmith all in one efficient operation. The lock-up has now been restored and given the status of a listed building but is seldom required for guests! With its walled garden and cobbled yard, the forge still retains the feel of a rural smithy.
