Since Ladbroke was by-passed in 1985 this has been a quiet stretch of road serving the village itself. In this view the house ahead is called the Forge. The Ordnance Survey map of 1886 shows there to have been a smithy at this location but exactly when that ceased to be operational is not known. Today it is a residential dwelling that incorporates a separate apartment used as a holiday let.
