  1. Cider-Making

    Share Share Post
    A great amount of cider was made in the district of Ardfinnan and Rochestown long ago, where there were some very fine orchards.
    Apples are still very plentiful though very little cider is made
    Some years ago a farmer living in Rochestown had ten acres of ground under apples.
    Mr O'Donnell, who still lives there, had a cider press and used make a great amount of cider; but he now sells his apples instead, to men who buy them all, every year.
    Mr O'Donnell's address is
    Rochestown
    Ardfinnan
