| There was a weaver in Barn Hill where the dryer plant is now. He was a linen weaver and went every week to Drogheda with his wares. (I think walking). This was in the beginning of the last century.
There was a man who worked in straw. I don't know what one would call that trade. He made beautiful arm chairs, just like cane chairs, they were called sugan chairs, and beautiful straw mats that would last a lifetime. But bee-hives formed the major part of his work. |
