- There were alot of forges around here long ago because it was always horses were used for travling when there were no motor-cars or lorries.
There is a forge in Ballybeagh and it belongs to Kiran Dunne and before him it belonged to his father.
There was another old forge in Liss about a mile from the village of Tullaroan on the Kilkenny road. It belonged to Mr. Britt first and then to Bill Brophy for a couple of years.
