Dating back to Victorian times The Forge at Whippingham has plenty of original features including an original working bellows forge, that works, but is no longer used. Originally used to shoe horses at Queen Victoria's home Osborne House just a mile down the road the Forge is still a fully working unit that produces period gates, fences and much more. It has a large yard at the rear that could be used for limited parking while a private school across the road could aslo be used for parking by negotiation. The location could only be used at weekends as it's in operation Monday to Friday.
