- Mullinahone was a great centre for the sale of butter some seventy years ago. The market house in Killaghy Street is still standing. There was a famous cooper named Thomas Walsh who made the firkins and barrels. He lived at Ballydonnell, Mullinahone. Michael Byrne and his son John and later Dick Donovan were coopers who lived where John Doran of Chapel St. now resides. William Shea who lived in Ballyduggan was another cooper.
