What is recorded here

Towards the E end of Gowran, on the N side of Main Street. A building annotated, ‘The Forge’ is indicated at this location on White’s map of Gowran, 1710/11. Though the map is early 18th century in date, it is likely that the forge dated to, at least, the 17th century. A two-storey four-bay house with three chimneys appears to occupy the location of the forge.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
