Ahascragh Mills, Ahascragh, County Galway Opened c.1810, this mill complex was originally owned by the Bell family and used as a corn mill. Water was diverted from the Ahascragh River and the mill stream used to power the mill wheel to grind corn. It ceased milling in the 1950s but played an important role in the agricultural and commercial life of the local area while it was active. Although extended unsympathetically in the 1950s and 1980s the central mill building retains its original character and is of substantial size and simple detailing. Together with the surrounding buildings they form an interesting group of industrial buildings. The mills played an important role in the development of Ahascragh and are significant in the industrial heritage of the area.
