Kennaa Corn Mill

Archaeology

Modern watermill (site of) and associated water management.


The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1869 shows a building at the grid reference provided, together with the annotation, 'T. Mill', denoting a threshing mill.


The mill was served by a leat which extends 75m from a 0.2 acre millpond, which stores water from a small stream draining the high ground to the south. A tail race leads the water to the complex of channels which drain the Central Valley curragh westwards towards the River Neb.


The structure is now demolished, though the millpond still exists as a water feature.
