What is recorded here
Following a successful petition by William Wandesforde in 1653-4, he was confirmed in possession of a 'water milne....near the said town' of Castlecomer (Nolan 1979, 66). A watermill is indicated on the Down Survey map (1655-6) in the settlement of Castlecomer (Farrelly et al. 1992, 130). The precise location of this water mill is unknown.
