CHEDWORTH CHEDWORTH VILLAGE SP 0512 10/57 No 2 (The Forge) including gate piers and railings

GV II

One of two adjoining cottages. Mid-late C17, extended C18 restored early C20 as indicated by a stone inscription plaque, dated and initialled 'A.W.B./1923' on the south-east facing gable. Random roughly squared limestone with dressed stone quoins formerly painted cream. Former ashlar stacks now replaced in brick; stone slate roof. C17 range parallel to road with later extension at right angles rear right. C17 range: 1 1/2 storeys. Extension; 2 storeys and attic. Entrance front of the C17 range: two 3-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements to the ground floor, continuous dripmould over the right-hand window; 2-light flat- chamfered stone-mullioned casement with gablet upper right. C20 plank door with fillets within a rebuilt surround (probably not the original position of the door) between the two ground floor windows. Two and 3-light stone-mullioned casements to both gable ends. Single-light wooden casement and 3-light half-dormer to the first floor. Early C18 two-panel door with strap hinges with fleur de lys terminals, at the rear within an early-mid C19 wrought iron porch with a curved and hipped canopy. C18 extension is lit by single-light, 2, 3 and 4-light flat-chamfered stone-mullioned casements some with stopped hoods. Single 3-light late C19-early C20 roof dormer. The casements to both ranges have early fastenings. Curving cast iron railing with fleur de lys finials on a low ashlar wall running parallel to the roadside front of the C17 range (now largely obscured by a hedge). The railing may have been made at the smithy nearby. Incomplete interior inspection revealed no features of special interest.
