This thatched smithy (also shown at http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=31892255 ) dates, according to http://list.english-heritage.org.uk/resultsingle.aspx?uid=1104145&searchtype=mapsearch , from the late C18-early C19, which rather contradicts the date of 1580 given on the forge's website http://branscombe-forge.co.uk/history
