  2. Local Forges

    Share Share Post
    There are three forges in my district. The owners of the forges are Tom Connolly, Paddy Mulligan, and Frank Rourke.
    Their roofs are made of wood. They shoes horses and asses. They mend ploughs and make handles for spades and shovels.
    Sometimes they shoe horses outside the door. The bellows is made of boards and leather.
