Can anyone help me locate any old photos of the smithy on Old Road ( now a fishing tackle shop) next to the Shepherds Arms? My great great grandad Jonathan Proctor (1817-1895) was a master blacksmith and wheelwright and he owned this building,  the cottages at the rear and the hearse house.They were left to his sons Jonathan and Thomas in his will,and he is buried in the family grave at Fernilee Chapel. Any other information would be  most welcome as I am completing my family history. Thanks John Proctor

Welcome JKP

I am sorry I have no pictures of the smithy Old Road only of the Smithy Market street, in fact I dont think I have ever seen a picture of the Smithy Old Road, maybe RSS will throw some light on this for you when he returns, good luck with your research.
