What is recorded here

Attached octagonal brick chimneystack built c. 1820, no longer in use. Red brick walling roughly laid in Flemish bond, three wrought-iron braces to top. Attached to two-storey roughcast-rendered slate roofed house and red and yellow brick walls of former factory/warehouse. Situated in former industrial complex to north of the River Boyne.
This brick chimneystack is an impressive reminder of Drogheda's industrial past. Once part of a large flax mill and later a shoe factory complex, it forms part of a cluster of architecturally and industrially significant structures near the River Boyne.
