This photograph, taken in September 1932, showcases the authentic Cockney blacksmith, Mr. Charles Mitchell, at work in his forge located in the quaint village of Pyecombe, Sussex. The village of Pyecombe is renowned for its long-standing history of blacksmithing, with the forge having produced famous crooks for centuries. Mr. Mitchell, a self-proclaimed Cockney, poses confidently before the anvil, his weathered face etched with the marks of time and experience. His muscular arms, covered in soot and grime, are poised to strike the red-hot iron. The forge, filled with the warmth of the fire and the rhythmic clanging of metal on metal, is a testament to the rich industrial heritage of the village. Despite the passage of time and the encroachment of modernity, the traditional methods of blacksmithing continue to thrive in Pyecombe.
