Quay in Athy

According to Bradley et al. (1986a, vol. 1, 43), 'It is probable that there were quays on the Barrow from at least the late thirteenth century when the passage of boats from New Ross to Athy is first referred to (Mills 1905, 202). Although their precise location is not recorded, a likely location would appear to be S of the bridge (KD035-0220008-) possibly in the vicinity of the present Barrow Quay.'
