  2. The Local Forge

    Share Share Post
    There is one forge in this parish. The name of the smith is Mr Darcy. They were smiths for a number of years. There was a forge at Mernagh's long ago. The forge is in Moneystown on a crossroads about three quarters of a mile from the school. The forge is a big house where the smith shoes horses. Sometimes the door of a forge is the shape of a horse-shoe. There is one fire in the forge. He shoes horses. He does not make farm-implements but he repairs them. The smith is a very strong man. They do some work of the forge outside - they shoe car wheels.
