- Old Local IndustriesPaper Mill at Newberry: (Notes obtained from John Mooney).
The mill was built by Wilsonholme, a scotsman for scutching flax. At this time the gentleman's residence (Newberry Hall) was owned by Viscount Harberton. It afterwards passed into hands of Pilkinton family - other aristocrats. These were connected with Alec Thorn (publishers) and they converted mill into a paper mill. The paper manufactured was cardboard and that used for book-binding. The manager was Martin (C.J.) whose family attended this school. He and family lived in a labourers cottage (still in preservation) opposite Rectory gates. The mill ceased work about half a century ago. Newberry is now owned by Mr. J. J. Robinson who had remains of mill removed. It was worked by water of Boyne and turbines. This industry was carried on for about 15 years and was stopped owing to foreign paper being imported at a cheaper rate: The source of Boyne is about 1/2 mile distant.
John Mooney says he working here and earned from 9/- to 12/- weekly.
