- Local Forges
In this district there is only one forge but some time ago there were two. the present one is situated at Kilmoyler Cross and is owned by Mr. John Clery of Ballydrehid. The other forge which was situated at Tankardstown Creamery and was owned by Mr. Patrick D'arcy of Tankardstown is now in ruins.
Patrick D'arcy was the seventh generation of the D'arcy family black smiths and he had a cure for a disease of the kidneys in men. He usually shod horses and asses and he mended ploughs, harrows and other farm implements. Some of the work was down in the open air such as landing wheels.
The D'arcy blacksmiths were always looked upon as being very strong and hasty of temper. The forge was always a centre for story telling and the boys around gathered there every evening. There was only one fireplace in the forge and the bellows were made of leather.
