    beside the road at the back of Healy's house. There is no sign of the mill there now. It was situated beside the river. The river supplies the village people with plenty of water. Th are a few nice two stories houses in the village also. The road leading through the village is now steamrolled and the road leading from Ballycumber to Clara is being steamrolled now also, Long ago the Black-an-Tans blew up the bridge that is over the river in the village but after that it was built up again.
