    About thirty five years ago there was an old bleach mill in the townland of Glenboy. Its ruins are still to be seen. it was situated in a big green field called the bleach green.
    In this mill sheets, towels and pillows, slips, and a half a dozen of towels that she got from her grandmather amd in the mill. My mother's grandmother got all her sheets, towels, and pillow slips in this mill. About ten poeple were employed in this job.
