O0982 : Windmill at Piperstown, Co. Louth
near to Ballymakenny and Newhouse, Louth, Ireland
Windmill at Piperstown, Co. Louth
Shown with sails on Taylor and Skinner's 1778 map of Co. Louth. Appears on O.S. 1st edition, surveyed 1835, as 'Pigeon Ho.' but on 1908 edition as 'Windmill Stump'. The western doorway has been neatly blocked up, presumably when it became a pigeon house. There are no traces of pigeon holes in the interior. In far right distance is the farmyard attached to Piperstown House, itself hidden by the trees.
