About Blacksmiths
A blacksmith forges and fabricates metalwork by hand - gates, railings, handrails, fire baskets, brackets, and bespoke decorative ironwork for homes, gardens, and commercial properties.
Scotland has a strong tradition of ornamental ironwork, and a skilled blacksmith can produce pieces that are both functional and distinctive in a way that factory-made alternatives never are.
For listed buildings or properties in conservation areas, a blacksmith who understands heritage specifications can produce work that satisfies planning requirements while matching the character of the original.
About Kirknewton
Kirknewton is a village on the western edge of Edinburgh's commuter belt, sitting close to the boundary with Midlothian and the A71 road connecting West Lothian to the capital.
It has a railway station on the Edinburgh to Shotts line, giving residents a direct commute into the city in under 20 minutes — one of the shortest commutes of any West Lothian village.
Hermiston Gait retail park and the Kirknewton estate are both nearby, and the surrounding countryside offers easy access to rural cycling and walking routes along the Water of Leith.
About West Lothian
(opens in new tab)West Lothian is a council area in the heart of the central belt, sitting between Edinburgh to the east, Falkirk to the north, and North Lanarkshire to the west.
It is a county of contrasts: historic royal burghs like Linlithgow and ancient villages like Torphichen sit alongside the new town of Livingston and the former mining and shale oil communities that shaped the landscape in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Livingston is the county's main centre — Scotland's fifth-largest settlement — but West Lothian's character is defined as much by its smaller towns: Bathgate, Broxburn, Whitburn, and Linlithgow each have their own distinct identity.
The oil shale industry, pioneered here in the 1850s by James Young, left a lasting mark on the landscape in the form of distinctive pink bings — the waste heaps of the shale works — that have become recognised landmarks in their own right.
West Lothian has excellent transport connections, with the M8 and M9 crossing the county, two rail lines linking it to Edinburgh and Glasgow, and Edinburgh Airport on its eastern edge.
