On both sides of Blackwater River (see 14806), on main Cork-Dublin road. Not listed as one of Cork's market towns in 1299 (O'Brien 1993, 94); site then occupied by Cistercian abbey (14384). No evidence of town here until 17th century when Richard Boyle established an English settlement which in 1637 consisted of about thirty households (MacCarthy-Morrogh 1986, 258). In 1685, Cox (Johnson 1902, 356) described it as 'a small market town' and in mid-18th century, Smith (1750, vol. 1, 348) called it 'a small village'. Purchased by John Anderson in 1791 and flourished under his patronage in early 19th century (Brunicardi 1980; Zajac 1995, 37); in 1837 consisted of 'a spacious square of handsome houses...and of several principal streets' (Lewis 1837, vol. 1, 623). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14 January 2009
