What is recorded here

Inland harbour, built c.1810, of rectangular plan, with outlet to River Shannon. Coursed dressed limestone walls. Saw mill buildings and house, originally associated with harbour, no longer in use.
Originally serving a wharf and saw mills, this harbour is now in use for small private vessels. The quality of the construction of the harbour walls has ensured their survival in very good condition.
