    Maps seem to thing the townland in Meath is called Rathmolyon, and Rathmoylan is in Waterford.

    O Mac It is indeed, you might like this video produced last year by Bus Éireann to mark the 70th anniversary of Busáras, Ireland’s central bus and coach station. It opened for business on 19 October 1953.

    New Ross Standard - Thursday 20 May 1993 carried a notice for an auction of railway sleepers and rails from the former Quigley Magnesite Plant at Ballynacourty. So it had gone by May 1993.

    Wikipedia article on Magnesite.

    Used , and in the production of Magnesium Oxide, a heat resistant material.

    Also used in floor screeds, and as a catalyst.

    I'm not a big fan of using seaside land as golf courses, but there's no doubt it looks better now!
