  Looks like a grain grinder (not the exact same model, but a similar looking machine). So Dawson's may have been a flour mill.

  Woesinger Thank you! Dawson's may well have been a mill. From online searches, there seem to be a lot of Dawsons around Maynooth, and at one time there was a Castle Dawson...

  Manor Mills on the historic OSI map, where Mill Street crosses the Mill Race. It seems to be the only corn mill in Maynooth. maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,693552,737776,7,9
