About this space

The Smithy is a private outdoor space at the Plough Inn, arranged as a covered dining area. Trellised planting gives the room an enclosed, garden-style character.

Design: White-painted walls, patterned floor tiles and dark woven furniture give The Smithy a neat, informal look. Hanging black and copper-toned lights add visual definition overhead.

Features: Dining tables and woven chairs provide a practical seated layout. Hosts may play their own music in the space.

Ideal for: Small groups looking for a relaxed, informal setting for seated meals and social gatherings.
