Buyers looking in the over-heated south and west of the country can only dream of prices like this. The two-bedroom conversion, which was in use as a forge until the mid-Eighties, would cost at least double anywhere else. Built in Victorian times, The Forge, in Old Humberstone near Cleethorpes, still has the original blacksmith's forge, now resting in the sitting room fireplace. The room has a high vaulted ceiling with beams and stable door. There's a second sitting room on the first floor. For sale at £64,000. Details from Bacons on 01472 691905.
