Mill race in Clondalkin, County Dublin

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.

What is recorded here

Mill race, c.1850, with associated concrete weir, walls and sluice on the Cammock River. Mill race no longer functional, and now forms pond.

This mill race is valuable evidence of the former land use in this part of Clondalkin. Though now disused, it remains important as a feature of the nearby parkland and as a wildlife habitat.
