Appraisal
An appealing collection of modest-scale ranges originally forming part of a larger corn mill complex representing an important element of the commercial and industrial legacy of Kilmanagh having traditionally supported some of the local agricultural economy. Now accommodating an alternative utilitarian function the assemblage remains an attractive feature in the landscape.
