Bog Iron, smelting, and forge welding with your friendly neighbourhood blacksmith, Reece Foster

Update: 2024-12-12

Description

Me and Miles spun down to Mountshannon, County Clare, to meet with traditional blacksmith, Reece Foster, who works out of a 270 year old forge.

He showed us how blacksmiths work in a forge, and told us all about the trade and it's connection to the locality.
