View of the "Rahilly block" from the river.
Apparently Richard Rahilly did not own the mill (the tall building here to the N of the Rahilly houses). Though he was described among many other occupations as a "miller".
He owned the block S of the mill, including the building on RHS here. He used this building to trade goods on the river.
Local historian Padraig O Concubhair says this trade was the real source of Richard Rahilly's wealth.
