About Bill's Workshop 

Photo of our traditional forge in south Oxfordshire

Founded in 2021 Bill's Workshop has grown into a small business producing a range of handmade products as well as traditional blacksmithing and furniture making on a commission basis. Our passion for the craft and desire to grow our business means we are constantly developing what we can offer our clients. In the last 12 months this development has led us to specialise in hand forged stainless steel cookware designed to last generations.

Since the summer of 2023 we teach regular blacksmithing courses so that we can bring the heritage craft to others, delivering unforgettable experience days in our woodland forge and Studio forge where we share our passion for the craft. 

We love what we do.​​
