Tide mill

The 1837 OS 6 inch map shows the site of Baltray Corn mill. The 1937 OS 6-inch map marks the 'highest point to which medium tides flow' at a point along a millrace E of Kilcrea House. There was some stone collapse at this point. This is probably the site of the tidal mill marked on Rocque's map of County Dublin (1756). The N side of the millrace is stone-walled (Flanagan 1984, 108). There have been works undertaken as evidenced on Bing maps (accessed 8/11/13). Extensive dredging and/or drainage insertion as far as can be ascertained. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout Updated by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 16 January 2015
