Kilbeggan Distillery

Mill race and associated water powered machinery including sluice gates with cast-iron machinery and an undershot waterwheel with timber floatboards, erected c.1820, probably incorporating earlier works. Located to the east of the main Locke's Distillery complex with tail race rejoining the River Brosna to the south.

An important surviving example of early water-powered machinery associated with Locke's Distillery. The waterwheel was designed and erected by I and R Mallets, a Dublin based engineering firm which specialised in producing machinery for water mills in the early nineteenth-century in Ireland. It is a notable addition to the industrial archaeology and engineering heritage of Ireland and integral part of the history of Locke's Distillery.
