Corona Virus (Covid19) Update
Due to the Corona Virus (Covid19) pandemic currently sweeping the globe and updated UK government guidelines (23/3/2020), Caimbeul's Forge is now working in isolation. We are however still accepting commissions and, due to the nature of blacksmithing as a mostly solitary craft, we can thankfully continue to work and produce quality metalwork.
To allow us to keep the business running and to keep ourselves, our clients, suppliers and everyone around us safe, we ask that you:
DO NOT COME OUT TO US, STAY AT HOME!
We are not currently conducting site visits or face to face customer meetings.
Any site visits or meetings will be rescheduled until after government guidelines have been relaxed, and there may be delays in deliveries too. We shall continue to conduct business by email, telephone, text, Facebook, Instagram, video calls etc. Please accept our apologies, we will do our best to reduce the disruption where we can whilst staying within the government guidelines.
Please check our website and Facebook, Instagram & Twitter pages for further updates as this crisis continues.
We are doing everything in our power to keep our clients, family, friends, ourselves and everyone around us safe during these worrying times, whilst trying to keep the business going and serving our customers the best we can. We will get through this pandemic if we support each other through the hard times ahead.
For those who continue to support Caimbeul's Forge through this time, we cannot express our gratitude enough.
We wish you all continued good health during this time of national emergency.
Thank you very much from us here at Caimbeul's Forge.

Caimbeul's Forge is run and owned by award winning Artist Blacksmith Doug Campbell AWCB and produces a wide range of contemporary and traditionally made hand forged steel work. With the forge being located in the Watford and Bushey area of Hertfordshire, Doug mainly designs and produces pieces to commission for private clients. He also maintains his position as "the local blacksmith" and does repair and restoration on existing metalwork.
If you have an idea for a commission or have a query, please get in contact.
The forge is open Monday - Friday, 9am-5pm & Saturday, by appointment only.
Please note that we occasionally have to do site visits during opening hours so if you wish to visit the forge we advise phoning first to ensure that we are there.
