About Me

I began my blacksmithing journey in 2017, after becoming fascinated with the ironwork I encountered during my time as a 12th century historical reenactor. From building my forging skills in my back garden with a bottle of propane and a hand-made forge, I now work out of Anvilsring Ironwork in Lancashire, England, where I spend my days hammering steel, poring over archeological drawings and trying not to set myself on fire.
