What is recorded here

A mill is indicated on the Down Survey (1655-6) maps which appears to be in the townland of Moatpark. Orpen (1909, 331) mentions an 'ancient mill-race can still be seen between the mote and the river'. Orpen may be referring the stream through the Wandesforde Estate which appears to have been embanked in the 18th century [see KK005-057----]. The precise location of the mill within the townland is unknown. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 22 May 2017

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
