Attractive 18th century inn nestling in a Lincolnshire Wolds hollow - the name originating from a former blacksmith's forge opposite. A large area in front of the bar is divided by an open screen with a smaller room to the side..well appointed and run, there is a large room available for functions and is also used for live music. A nice beer range to suit all tastes. An excellent play area with various things to do is accessed from the car park. The rear garden reached by the end of the bar counter may not always be available. Reopened October 2024 after a refurbishment.
