Enclosing the forge in privacy fence of such keeps roving eyes away and can slows down those who like to prowl around at night.
I have found that lots of bright security lights with motion sensors is the best determinant. When a bright light comes on most thieves skedaddle. I use solar powered lights and have them all over the house, shop, and yard. It is convenient for me when I walk out to the shop or take out the trash at night, and when one comes on at night while I am reading or watching TV I usually notice it immediately. Never saw anything but a fox or two tripping the light. If it was a person, they must have split when the light came on.
