This slab is located outside the Athenry Dominican Priory. It is the same photo each side one right way up (left) and the other one the opposite way (right). It is likely a carving of a cross onto a slab. The slab may be tapered.

Down between Tesco's and the road that leads to the motorway from Athenry to Galway there is a humpback bridge which is known locally at Pound Bridge in Athenry. The archaeology survey number to the bridge is GA084-024 (I would like to thank Galway Community Archaeologist Bernie Doherty for forwarding me on the number). The transcription of the archaeological survey refering to the bridge is the following; "This four-arch bridge, constructed of mortared stone, straddles the Graigueabbey River (ADMIN'S NOTE: I want to investigate this myself as there are also signs for the River Clarin which many people know that river as ADMIN END NOTE) . Continuing the archaeological survey it says: ".....It is c. 130m to the S of the site of the 'Spitle Gate', the S gateway to the medieval town of Athenry (GA084-001----). When initially visited in 1984 it was described as being in good condition: each arch was c. 2.3m wide at the base and two piers or breakwaters were visible on the upstream side. Wickerwork centring, indicating that the bridge has a medieval core, was noted in three of the arches, while the mortar bed in the fourth was in a very poor condition. The river just flowed through the latter most north-westerly arch. The bridge has been widened in more recent times, but was originally 3.25m wide. Since then the river has been widened and it now flows through the two most north-westerly arches; the other two arches are partially blocked. The uppermost part of a third pier or breakwater has been exposed by the removal of weeds and scrub around the base of the bridge (information from J. O'Sullivan 2009).

The Town House was built by John Lopdell between 1822 and 1830. It was originally known as 'River View' before it was called Athenry House. By 1865, the river Clarin with its roman-arched bridge, was brought through the estate lending added charm to the place.    Dr. Henry John Wellington Leonard died there in 1893, leaving an invalid wife, and a raised family of one son and four daughters. Historian Aggie Qualter remembers her going to Athenry House 'I remember two big tennis tournaments at Town House during WWI, both within a few weeks. Judging from the crowd that attended , they may well have been the County championships. I'll never know. The gentry came from all over - in landaus, carriages, and bell-ringing pony traps. The Lobdells ( I presume this is a spelling mistake of Lopdells?), Roes, Halls and Concannons came on bicycles (bikes were status symbols in those years)." #irelandshiddenheartlands #visitathenry #archaeology #visitgalway #destinationgalway #discoverathenry #athenryheritage #galwayculture #athenry #athenrycastle #athenrygenealogy #athenry #opwheritage #opw #opwheritage #galwaycountyheritage #eastgalway #irishdiasporaora #ireland #visitireland #galwaytourism

On Tuesday 28 May 1935 the Athenry Western Sack & Bag Factory was officially opened by Mr Gerald Boland TD who was Minister for Post and Telegraphs. The road that led to the building was decorated with bunting anda large crowd had come to see him with the Gardaí giving him a guard of honour under Chief Superintendent Clenton, Ballinasloe, and Garda Kelly, Athenry.   The Big Launch    On the platform were Mr Weir, MD of the factory, TD’s Stephen Jordan and Sean Broderick; JJ Ruane; Haley B Murtagh and C.Taylor; directors of the company, Dr C Foley; RM Burke; Tohermore, Tuam; R Collins Superintendent of the Agricultural College Athenry; Rev Mr North Bombfard, M Hession, Mayor F Carr, Newtown; Mr Bowes Daly of Dunsandle, and Dr Tom Powell . Mr Weir said he was proud and happy to see the fruits of their labour of the past eighteen months realised in the shape of  hand some factory and he expressed the hope that the undertaking, though small, would help in the promotion and growth of other industries. On behalf of the directors and shareholders of the company he welcomed the Minister. Larry Lardner then read a public address of welcome from the AIDPC (Athenry Industrial Development Promotional Committee).   The sugar beet factories had required one million sacks for pulp and another million for sugar, and the Government could induce the companies to give orders for the sacks to the Athenry Western Sack & Bag Factory. Indeed Minister Boland was happy that the Minister for Industry and Commerce would do all he could to induce the directors of the sugar company to place their orders with the Athenry factory.   visitgalway #destinationgalway #discoverathenry #athenryheritage #galwayculture #athenry #athenrycastle #athenrygenealogy #athenry #galwaypubliclibraries #Athenry #athenrylibrary #galwaycountyheritage #eastgalway #irishdiasporaora #ireland #visitireland #galwaytourism #keepdiscovering #discoverireland #genealogyresearch #xploretravel #irishgenealogy #genealogyireland #galwaybeo #galwayhistory #galwayheritage
