The Venue
Green Family Forge, Trinity, Newfoundland and Labrador
The Green family practiced as blacksmiths in Trinity since before 1750. The death of John Green is recorded in the Church records for 1764.
The present smithy was built between 1895 and 1900. It was last in use in 1955. The building is unusually large for that era with a second storey along the front of the structure.
