    This bellows is worked by oil. In some parts of Ireland the head is given to the smith, but it is not done here.

    There is an old forge situated in Dunboy. Murty Óg shot "Pucksley" near this forge. This is the oldest I know in this peninsula. Since Pucksley was shot, there are lonesome things seen there.
