  1. (continued from previous page)
    Mr Coveney had shops in Kinsale where the goods were sold. Much of the trade was done by barter, people getting goods in exchange for fleeces At one time there were as many as thirty people working there. It gradually declined until there were only a weaver and spinner employed. No work has been done there since about 1930.
    The mill is now in ruins.
