Our History

Rob took over the company in 1979, although the history of the company can be traced back to the 17th Century through a few surviving records.

More detailed records exist from the 19th Century showing blacksmithing and agricultural building work over the years. Under the ownership of Rob and Steve the business now once again focuses prominently on traditional blacksmithing work and restoration projects
