dc.descriptionKilmateed Mill and Pond 18.2; Kilmateed Old Mill 18.2.33: these ruinous gunpowder mills in the Corkagh Demense operated in the eighteenth and nineteenth century. Taylor's map of 1816 describes it as a 'powder mill.' This operated from around 1716 to 1815, at the end of the Napoleonic Wars. The river Camac provided the motive power. Given the dangers of gunpowder manufacture, this form of manufacture was located at a distance from any place of habitation, and an explosion in 1733 which temporarily halted operations, demonstrated the danger. Operators of the mills included Nicholas Gruber until 1733, and the Arabin family in the 1790s, William Caldbeck and Richard Chaigneau.en_IE
