  1. Old Buildings.
    One of the oldest buildings in the town is store owned by by the Bride Valley Stores. It was built in the year 1798 as a Military Barrack. In the Famine time it was made into a hospital and in the year 1886 it was made into a Creamery. It was then in disuse until Mr.Jacob took it.
    Another building which was near the town is not to be seen now, but the name of it tells us that it was a mill owned by some Duke. It is known as Duke's Mill. There was a Tucker Mill here in the year 1780, and flannel was made there.
