The Smithy
1920s
Looking Southwest. A blacksmith is shoeing a horse. Horse and smith are at the roadside outside the smithy while a second man just visible in the doorway is looking on and possibly holding the horse’s tether. The smith is nailing the shoe and has a portable tool box at his feet. Pile of discarded horseshoes and a rolling machine outside smithy. Wheel rims and wheels against wall opposite.
