The Blarney Woollen Mills (www.blarney.com) is a large store selling crystal, ceramics, clothing and gifts, based in the old woollen mill in Blarney. Originally built in 1824 the mill was a water mill making woollens and tweeds, and employing local people. The Mill closed in 1973, and was eventually bought by a man called Christy Kelleher, who had worked in the woollen mill as a boy. Christy has since died, but his family business continues.
