Read on to learn a little of our history .....
Bleachfield - on the banks of the Abha Solais river was the centre of the flax growing industry as early as 1400 and gets it's name from the bleaching process, whereby the flax was spread out on the fields so that the sun would 'whiten' or 'bleach' the fibres. Milltown linen was much sought after and was exported to France and Spain, where it graced the houses of Royalty.

The Bistro is home to the Local History Library which documents the Story of Milltown, it's social history and local archaeology. It's the largest collection of local memorabilia including photographs, books, articles and displays.
Enjoy all this and more with a tasty lunch or simply tea and scones in front of a roaring fire.
