Maker's bio

Adrian Wood artist blacksmith is a university graduate with a degree in fine art sculpture from The University of London. A chance visit to a blacksmith's forge gave Adrian Wood his first taste of blacksmithing. He recalls; ”From the first moment I hit the hot steel I knew what I wanted to do.” The Forge workshop is situated in the rural outskirts of Yarm, between Darlington and Northallerton so is easily accessible from the A1 or A19. Adrian is a mentor on the BBC 1 show Make It At Market.

Colin Ogden reviewed: Blacksmithing Beginners day courses in Yorkshire and the North East

"I wouldn't hesitate to recommend one of Adrian's blacksmithing courses. The day was excellent, so interesting, informative and enjoyable from start to finish. I was really delighted with the garden flowers I made. Adrian & Andy were helpful, friendly and always on hand to give support where required and Debbie gets a special mention for the delicious home made lunch, cakes & biscuits! "
