- There are four forges in this parish and he names of the blacksmiths are:- Tom Walsh, Roddy Fahy, Bill Keaveney, and Pat Conneely. Their people before them were not blacksmiths.
Two of them are in the town and two od them in the country. All the forges are galvanised.
There are double doors in the forges and one fireplace.
The bellows is made of leather and there is a chain running through it.
These are the implements used by the smith- hammer, sledge, rash, pinchers, tongs, and iron.
The smith shoes asses, horses, but he does not shoe cattle.
People used make presents for blacksmiths long ago beyond other people, that's how they paid them for their work.- Collector
