What is recorded here

Archer's Island church gave up its stones around 1800 to build Ballyconra mill, and the mill has since disappeared. What remains is a fragment: material displaced twice, first from worship to work, then from work to absence. The place still carries the shape of both losses.

According to Carrigan (1905, vol. 2, 316) a church (KK004-008001-) on Archer's Island in the River Nore was largely demolished c. 1800 and the stones were used in the building of Ballyconra mill. The mill has since been demolished. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 10 February 2016
