Donkeywell Forge is a traditional blacksmiths forge on the outskirts of Cirencester, Gloucestershire. We produce traditional and contemporary ironwork working with all forms of metal including true wrought iron, mild steel, bronze, copper, stainless steel and corten. We have traditional coke fired forges along with large gas powered forges and power hammer facilities which allows us to specialise in the use and principles of heritage materials and styles including fire welding. This all sits alongside modern workshop facilities and machinery. We hope the pictures of the work on our website say more about us than pages of text as we would rather be making than writing about it! If you would like to talk to us regarding any future projects please do not hesitate to get in touch.
I’m a hobby blacksmith operating from my home built coal forge in my back yard. I’ve been smithing for only a few weeks, at weekends only (winter nights and no lighting in my yard). I’ve made a number of hot and cold hand tools, my first blade as well as a range of viking inspired jewelry.
I’m looking to network with other local smith to share ideas and resources.
Matthew and Karine Maynard are designers, blacksmiths and artists who use metal and architectural space as their media. As a husband and wife team, they specialize in hand-forged custom stair rails, furniture and applied design.
Hot forging is at the core of what I do at Bringsty. I will design and make items to commission, for galleries, exhibitions and demonstrations. I will also repair and restore existing and historical ironwork, and make items to a client’s specification. The process of producing bespoke ironwork to suit the site and client is what I enjoy. Taking a client’s vision for an empty space, and realising their vision by guiding them through the possibilities and practicalities that hot forging, traditional and contemporary techniques can bring to items of originality and longevity.

ARTESIAN METAL FABRICATION FROM GEDDING MILL
Welcome to Gedding Mill, we are an artesian fabrication company with contemporary skills and a track record of excellence spanning more than three decades.
Not your average Metalworkers
Gedding Mill Limited operates from a newly constructed, purpose-built, 5000 Sq. Ft workshop in Suffolk. We create a wide variety of metalwork for interiors, industrial, retail and domestic customers using Steel, Stainless Steel, Copper, Brass and Aluminium. We work meticulously to exact specifications and ensure we deliver the goods on time and on budget.
We have an eye for detail, with the range of skills and knowledge in the team, we can design and produce solutions for commercial projects and private clients alike.It is usual for us to work with companies that often have a very short and mission critical lead time. This is a responsibility that we take very seriously. We maintain our promises and understand its fundamental importance.
How we work
Customer service and clear communication are fundamental to our success and this goes both ways. In order to ensure we deliver exactly what our customers want, we need to be 100% clear on the brief and specification. Once this is agreed and signed off by the customer, we get to work. Our quality control is rigorous as we won’t gamble our reputation on a less than perfect product.
We have grown steadily through repeat business and recommendations and over the years our customers have tested our metal (no pun intended) by giving us more complex and unusual projects. We embrace these projects with energy and enthusiasm as we love a challenge!

Located where BABA was founded in 1978, Fire and Iron is a major gallery and workshop specialising in forged ironwork and associated metal crafts. Representing more than 100 leading British and international blacksmiths, jewellers and other artists using metal as their chosen medium, Fire and Iron was founded in the early 1980s in response to the global resurgence of interest in forged iron as a creative medium. Owned and run by Lucy Quinnell, who grew up in a blacksmithing family and is the current editor of Artist Blacksmith magazine, Fire and Iron encourages high standards in art metalworking and attracts buyers and commissioners from all over the world. Lucy is married to blacksmith Adam Boydell, and together they design and create public artworks and private commissions. The couple also works in collaboration with other blacksmiths on some Fire and Iron commissions. Lucy won a gold medal for her first RHS garden at the RHS Hampton Court Palace Flower Show in 2008, and since then she has worked on five more RHS gardens. She lectures on the subject of blacksmithing, and has been featured talking about the subject on Woman’s Hour, the Craft Show, British Lifestyles (Japan), Blue Peter, Britain’s Best Home and Carlton Country.
