  1. Henry Dunphy's Mill and a '98 Connection

    Share Share Post
    From Henry Dunphy, Kilmuckridge Mill

    In the old mill which still stands at the foot of Kilmuckridge hill it is said that there is an old oaken beam which was brought from Wexford bridge and from which several of the Wexford Insurgents of 98 (including the leader Captain Bagenal Harvey) were hanged.
    The beam is still in the mill and is quite sound, so sound that a nail cannot be driven into it.
