• RO048-171 Water mill - vertical-wheeled
  Description

  A mill is marked in this area on the Strafford map of c. 1636 at a place called Stratamery, just SE of Mullagh (Simington 1949, Athlone (73)). The mill, described as at Ballycreggan, was owned by John Mc Robert O'Naughton in 1641 along with 287 acres there, but the property had passed to the Countess of Fingal and Colonel William Legg by the 1660's (ibid. 97). In the 19th century Millnaghten mill was the property of the Grainger estate who leased it to Mongans, but by 1861 the lease was taken by Bartholomew O'Brien of Atteagh Mills, c. 1km to the N, who probably built the present buildings on the W bank of the N-S Cross River. These consist of a three-bay three-storey mill with a two-bay, two-storey structure attached to the W, which is thought to be the original mill but is probably coeval with the larger part. The mill continued to be operated by the O'Briens' into the 1940s. None of the remains can be assigned with certainly to the 17nth century.

• RO048-189 Armorial plaque
  Description

  Set in the front wall of a house but believed locally to have come from Boyle. However, this is unlikely as George Devenish owned over 1200 acres in the Athlone parish of St Peter's. Much of it was bog but 464 profitable acres were held in Monkes Land, and in the 1660s it was owned by William and Katherine Devenish (Simington 1949, 92). This is a limestone plaque (H 0.46m; Wth 0.42m) with the incised date 1627, but the shield and inscription are in false relief. It reads: BVILDED BY GEORG. / DEVENISH & CESILY : / FITZGERALD HIS WIF.

• RO048-199 Excavation - miscellaneous
  Description

  On a NW-SE esker ridge, c. 75m SW of the Cross River and c. 150m W of the motte and bailey (RO048-113001-) and castle (RO048-113002-) of Ballycreggan. A pit (dims 1.3m x 0.7-0.8m; D 0.1m) containing charcoal-enriched soil was recovered in excavation (02E1054; 02E1158), with a hearth (dims 0.8m x 0.6m; D 0.25m) c. 30m to the NW.
