MY STORY

I was born and bred in the Cotswolds, in a small village near Moreton-in-Marsh. My interest in blacksmithing is owed to my father, who is a potter and has a keen interest in history and old crafts, and my grandmother, who was an artist and her work mainly depicted Arthurian and Saxon legends. Their interests influenced me from an early age and one of my earliest memories was watching Blacksmiths in films. From then on, it was all I ever wanted to do. Needless to say, my family were delighted in the direction I wanted to take, and supported me completely.

​

I trained at Moreton Morrell college under Michelle Parker FWCB, who was the female world champion at the time. Following which I was employed as a Blacksmith by a local metalworking company. I worked for the company for nine years, the last six of which I ran the forge solely on my own. I predominately made decorative gates and bridges for a variety of clients, ranging from small garden gates to large entrance gates for manor houses and estates.

​

After over a decade in the field, I decided to set up my own workshop and produce high quality, custom made products. My work ranges from sculptures, to gates, to keyrings. All commissions are welcome, of any size.
