    Share Share Post
    There was a forge in Lismacmanus long ago. It belonged to the late Frank Fallon. The forge is still there and is till there and is used for a turf shed.
    At the present time there are two forges in the parish owned by James Murray and Pat Rooney. Both blacksmiths learned the trade going from place to place. The late Patrick Fallon brother of the late Frank Fallon owned the forge in which Pat Rooney is working now.
