The Old Mill History

Nestling snugly under the rolling slopes of the Tallaght hills in suburban south Dublin, you will find the Old Mill. First licensed in the 1750s as a Coaching Inn on the old coach road to Wicklow, on what was previously one of the five ancient highways of Ireland, this old licence is steeped in the riches of Irish history.

In its infancy this cultural jewel of antiquity, along with its aristocratic neighbours, received great protection from the Crown because of the repeated incursions of the dispossessed native Irish who roamed the nearby mountains. In the early 1800s this Inn was designated as a daily despatch and collection point for the Royal Mail Coach.

In 1816, within a quarter mile of here, occurred the execution of the Kearney brothers, who had previously murdered Ponsonby Shaw, one of Ireland’s most despised and tyrannical landlords’ agents.

In 1997 publican, Louis Fitzgerald, made licensed history when he razed the old Inn to the ground, and then reconstructed it around the theme and contents of an old mill that he had transported in its totality from County Tipperary.

This is a gigantic emporium with numerous chambers leading off in different directions and levels, all of which form the workings of a real life Irish mill. Around it has been fashioned the fabric of Irish life as this mill in itself represents a social history of rural Ireland. You will find here the people themselves, their way of life, their literature, the conditions in which they lived and the tools and implements with which they work

As you stroll about the pub, you will discover it to be a virtual Aladdin’s cave of the riches and artefacts of rural Ireland. Take note of the old kitchen loft that is a secluded area of pitch pine and stone tiles with a warm country fireplace, around which the local community would once have gathered at night time.

You will find a storeroom in which the bags of grain and corn would once have been stored. All about you will see the riches of Irish literature written on the walls, the most inspirational of which was composed from the ordinary things of Irish rural life, such as Kavanagh’s ‘To The Man After The Harrow’
