KILKENNY ON A REALLY WET DAY IN MAY 2016 REF-227165-000<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

I used a Sony A7RII and a Zeiss Batis 24mm lens and it was lashing rain at the time – it rained for the duration of my visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I photographed this in May 2016 I dd not know that it was Lacken Mill and did not pay much attention to it as I was focused on the well that is attached. At the time I thought that the well was a holy well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The medieval origins of Lacken Mill, which stands across the River Nore, opposite Ormode Mill, remain visible today. Discoveries made in the 1980s revealed a medieval stone arch as well as a stone slab bearing an incised carving of a man in 16th century costume, part of the Archer\u2019s coat of arms. The mill\u2019s brick fa\u00e7ade is also built on a 15th\/16th century structure. In the 19th century, the Sullivan family, who lived in Lacken Hall and owned the Brewery on James\u2019 Street, renovated the mill, bringing it up to 19th century standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A well-composed large-scale building forming an important element of the long-standing industrial legacy of Kilkenny occupying a site that has had associations with milling for many centuries: a mill is identified as having operated on site as early as the fourteenth century. Although having fallen into ruins the composition survives substantially intact as identified by the regular pattern of openings across each elevation with the mill presenting a picturesque feature of some Romantic quality overlooking the River Nore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inscription over the doorway leading to the well reads \u201cLacken Well, Altered and Improved, July 1831.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
