With Valley Farm just down the road. Forge Cottage (and the attached forge) formed part of Acrise Manor Estate, which was broken up in 1929 and the properties on the estate sold as separate lots. Someone has written on my copy of the sale document (dated 25 July 1929) against Forge Cottage and Forge: "Sold to Mrs C A Bailey for £210".
