Mill - corn

The National Monuments Service's description

According to the Civil Survey (1654-6) of Stamullin parish 390 acres at Tullocke were owned by Lord Gormonstowne and on the land was a farm house and a corn mill (Simington 1940, 11). The millpond of the ‘old mill of Tullock’ is described as part of the bounds of land at Reynoldstown, Co. Dublin in the same survey of Co. Dublin (Simington 1945, 34). A description of the manor of Naul from the Gormanston papers (MS 44,346/5-8) in 1633 included two mills, a watermill to grind corn and a tuck mill (Tiernan 2008, 17). The mill is depicted on Dunca’s mp of 1821, and a functioning building is annotated as a Flour Mill on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map. The mill appears to have been still functioning on the 1906 edition and it is now a private residence. The mills have been researched by Brendan Matthews and Ian Lennon.
