- CO027-042002 Mill - woollen
Description
On W bank of River Funshion; built against rock face to W, and overlooked by Glanworth Castle (14328). Rectangular 2-storey mill (18.5m E-W; 14m N-S), 6 bays wide; double-gable-ended to E; random rubble limestone construction with brick-dressed opes. In appearance mid-/late-19th-century- E wall rebuilt using masonry of earlier structure. Millrace taken from river by weir c. 150m to N, tail race flows under Glanworth Bridge (14817) immediately to S. Wheel-pit (Wth 3m) alongside E wall contains cast-iron poncelot waterwheel (diam. c. 4.5m; Wth 2.45m) with curved wooden paddles. Modern buildings to S contain 20th-century carding machine and bags of wool. Indicated on 1842 OS 6-inch map as L-shaped 'flour mill'; second 'flour mill' indicated on E bank of river to S of Glanworth Bridge, no longer survives. Excavations at Glanworth Castle discovered a paved area made with millstones (Mould 1991, 152) which are likely to have come from these mills. Lewis (1837, vol. 1, 655) refers to mill as property of Messrs. Murphy and Kelleher. Grove White (1905-25, vol. 3, 138) describes it as woollen mill belonging to John F. Quinlan & Co., which was 'burned many years ago'. Subsequent to site inspection mill building restored and in 1998 converted to restaurant.

- CO027-042003 Bridge
Description
Hump-backed road bridge (Wth c. 3.75m; long axis ENE-WSW) over River Funshion; overlooked by Glanworth Castle (14328). Random-rubble limestone construction; piers built on rock outcrops in river's bed. Thirteen semicircular arches, generally increasing in width and size towards centre; rough limestone voussoirs; low pointed cutwaters on upstream side only. Span of arches range from14ft->17ft 6in, and width of piers from 5ft->7ft 6in (O'Keeffe & Simington 1991, 168). Random-rubble parapet wall with remains of vertical stone coping. Bridge traditionally dated to 1446, though O'Keeffe & Simington (ibid., 166) could find no direct evidence for this date. This bridge is atypical of pre-15th century multi-span bridges in Ireland which have pointed segmental arches and level roadways; however, O'Keeffe and Simington (ibid., 171) conclude that a mid-15th century date as likely as any other for this bridge.
