Abstract/Summary
Report for a programme of historic building recording of a former smithy building at St George’s Hill, Glentworth, conducted prior to proposed incorporation of the building as part of a new residential dwelling. Two site visits were undertaken as part of the survey. The former smithy is of at least 19th century origin and possibly earlier. It was marked as a ‘Smithy’ by a map in the late 19th century, though the building may have been in use as such earlier. There were significant internal 20th century alterations, including the addition of a mezzanine floor and new ground floor office or store. By the time of the site visit, there were few original internal features which remained, though the location of the vertical brick chimney breast on the north wall may suggest the presence of a former furnace, replaced by a conventional fireplace. A photographic record was made of the exterior and interior.
