The National Monuments Service's description
The precise location of a corn mill in Stillorgan has not been identified. The terrier of the 1655-59 Down Survey map of the parishes of Kill and Monkstown recorded that; ‘there stands in Stillorgan a Castle [DU023-071----] in repaire and about forty Ash trees and a Corn Mill in repaire’ (NLI MS 714/52). It is possible that Corn Mill was located in close proximity to the castle of Stillorgan. The Down survey recorded that these lands then amounting to 370 Irish acres were then in the possession of William Wolverston.
