Ballavagher Mill
Archaeology
Modern millpond.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 depicts a water mill at this location, annotated as 'T. Mill'.
The millpond lay to the north of the threshing mill, contained behind a dam along its southern side. The millpond was fed from a spring just a few metres to the north.
The size of the pond has been substantially reduced and the dam is no longer apparent; water is directed southwards towards the Middle River by way of field drains.
