What is recorded here
Aghamilla Mills, marked on the 1842 Ordnance Survey map, stands two kilometres northwest of Clonakilty beside the Fealge river. One seven-metre square chamber survives with its southern wheel pit infilled, while the lost companion mill has vanished entirely. The Fealge still drives no visible wheel, yet the stone chamber remains closed against the rain, waiting for a miller who may never return.
Roadside mill complex, 2km NW of Clonakilty on Fealge river. Indicated on OS 6-inch map (1842) as 'Aghamilla Mills' with 'Corn Mill' and 'Tuck Mill' located. One mill (L 7m; Wth 7m) survives, infilled wheel-pit along S elevation. According to owner, it was a corn mill.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 1: West Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1992). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
