- Long ago the customs of the people of Newtownmountkennedy were quite different from what they are today.
It was a common thing in days gone by to see men and women walking to Dublin from Newtown and its vicinity. They remained a night in Dublin and returned home the following day.
In those days the people of this district scarcely ever heard of tea, their chief food was oatmeal poeridge and potatoes. Sometimes they would have a little ground wheat with which they made bread.
