    There is one forge in our parish. The smith's name is John Curley. His father before him was a smith. The forge is situated in a town called Aughrim. It is situated near a stream. There is one fireplace in it and it has a slated roof. This smith shoes horses and he also makes farm tools. There is another forge in the parish of Aughrim and Dan Cinslea is the owner. It is the same as Curley's.
