The Forge – repair and improvement

The maintenance team have done a great job in renovating the forge and adding an extension to the front. The pitch of the roof has been increased and the hazel screens around the side have been replaced with new wood. The front extension has been created to help protect the users. With the uncertainty of this summer’s weather it has been a great help.

The cooking hearth in the main shelter has been leveled and re pointed.

The teams continue to work on the weaving house using their skills in daubing with lime plaster and attaching barge boards.
