What is recorded here
Mill building depicted on the 1758 John Rocque map of Kilkenny and the 1st ed. (1839) OS 6-inch map, at the rear of 68-69 John Street. The mill is on the N side of the medieval millrace (KK019-026077-) and abuts the NW (internal) face of the town wall (KK019-026001-) of St John's. Archaeological test excavation by Bernice Molloy (01E1031) identified the remains of a mill building comprising a limestone and red brick wall foundation and an upstanding red brick wall which projected from the face of the town wall (Molloy 2001, unpublished; 2003, 215). Much of its fabric remains preserved in situ.
