Hot metal, a roaring fire and an anvil. This heritage craft would once have been found in every village but is now a rare sight. We’re very fortunate at Sacrewell to be able to offer one-to-one lessons (or one-to-two, depending on the workshop, if you wish to work with a friend or relative) with our resident blacksmith, Lance.
What’s included in a blacksmith workshop?
- All the tools and material you need to create your own piece of metalwork
- Instructions, advice and assistance from our blacksmith Lance
- Use of personal protection equipment (goggles, gloves and an apron)
What’s Not included?
- Sacrewell admission – please purchase a day admission ticket if you’d like to explore the farm before or after your course. If you’d just like to do the blacksmithing course an admission ticket is not required
- Spectators are welcome to join you and will be required to purchase a day admission ticket.
If you have a blacksmithing workshop booked, please contact us for further details.
Brilliant time. We will be back.

Our blacksmith’s workshop is situated approximately 75m from our main entrance and has an uneven, cobbled floor. Participants must be able to stand for the full duration of their blacksmithing workshop.
