Caimbeul's Forge

Caimbeul's Forge is run and owned by 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 Bushey, 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 work 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.

We are also on Social Media!

Our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest pages are regularly updated with what's going on at Caimbeul's Forge including photos of current work, events we will be attending and photos of daily life in the forge.

Doug is now an AWCB!

Whilst doing our Christmas exhibition 2015 at Lark Lane Artworks in Liverpool, Doug was approached about being a part of "Everyday Extraordinary People - In This Life", a series of short videos about a person's character and inspirations in following their chosen interest in life. Of course, he said yes!
