- TS083-019016 Weir - regulating
Description
Lyons (1936, 292) suggests that a mill weir S of the Suir Islands and SE of Suir Island House 'anciently may have been a fishing weir'. The weir is not indicated on the 1st (1840-41) ed. OS 6-inch map which suggests that it's construction post-dates 1840-41. The evidence does not warrant its inclusion as an archaeological monument.
