Description
In the village of Cockington,in the county of Devon, a couple of miles from where I live is a Forge.
The original building was built in the 10th century and is mentioned in the Doomesday Book of 1086
Largely destroyed by fire, it was re-built in 1345 to it's current design.It was still in use up to 1971 when as children, we used to watch the blacksmith at work.
Cockington is the village where I got married.
Postwork done in the Gimp

Excellent Steve! Nice soft focus finish! 5++
What a fantastic looking old building Steve, it's a shame more of these are not still around, so much more character than the boxes we have these days.
Outstanding capture, brings back memories 40 years ago, had a holiday in Torquay and visited Cockington, all I remember were thatched cottages and correct me if I am wrong, there was a wonderful Model Village.
Gr8 capture!
