What is recorded here
In 1682 Sir Henry Piers of Tristernagh described the route of the River Gaine and the mills and bridges along its route. He wrote the following about the bridge (WM007-123----) at Multyfarnham; 'it passeth to Multifornan, where it falleth under another large bridge; thence to a mill, whence immediately it watereth the ground of the late Friery of Multifernan (WM006-058----)' (Vallancey 1786, 6). The 'Corn Mill' depicted standing on the banks of the River Gaine on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map may have been built on site of or in close proximity to the medieval mill of Multyfarnham.
