Summary
A single storey brick L-plan building standing behind a 17th century house on North Street probably relates to that marked behind a now demolished building on Park Street marked on the Ordnance Survey 2nd edition map. It is thought that this may have been part of the smithy. The building is now in use as an office and the front wall seems to be a replacement.
