BANDON SLATERS DIRECTORY 1870

With the village of Innishannon and Neighbourhoods

 

Bandon, or Bandon Bridge, is a large and respectable market town, and a borough both corporate and parliamentary, partly in the parish of Kilbrogan, barony of Kinalmeaky, but chiefly in that of BALLYMODAN, barony of East Carbery, east division, county of Cork, 174 miles s.w. from Dublin and 19 s.w. from Cork, pleasantly situated on the banks of the river from which it derives its name, and is the terminus of the Bandon and Cork railway.  This town was founded by the celebrated Richard Boyle, first Ear of Cork about the year 1610; by his interest it was incorporated and several charters were obtained, granting to the inhabitants many privileges and advantages.  At the period Bandon was chiefly inhabited by English protestants, who walled and fortified the town and built two churches and market houses.  The walls were, however, demolished by the Irish in 1689, for which violence no Roman Catholics were, for a long time, permitted to reside in the town.  The settlers being an industrious and economical people, Bandon began to flourish and increase, till at length the streets within the walls becoming incapable of containing its population, several additional ones were built in various parts of the suburbs and it has continued to improve in appearance and increase in wealth ever since.  The principal part of the present town lies in a valley environed with lofty hills.  Under the various names of Main Street, Boyle Street, and Shannon Street, it extends on the south side for about a mile and a half parallel with the river, and on the north for about half that distance.  Many of the habitations are built on the acclivity of the hills on both sides of the river, which are agreeably wooded and embellished with several mansions and villas, that impart to the environs a pleasing appearance.  The old town stands on the estate of the Duke of Devonshire; and the western portion belongs to the Earls of Cork and Bandon.  In addition to the corn and provision trade, there are two linen manufactories, two breweries, and an extensive distillery, several tanneries, malting, and flour mills; branches of the Bank of Ireland, the Provincial and the Munster Banks, and two hotels.  The shopkeepers, who carry on a very extensive retail trade, are numerous and highly respectable.  A limited trade is carried on by the river, which is navigable for barges to Inishannon, four miles from the town.  The inhabitants were incorporated by charter of James 1.  James 11 granted a new one, and Charles II conferred lands on the corporation.  The government is vested in the magistrates, who hold general sessions for the west-riding in October or November, and petty sessions for the division every Monday.  Manorial courts for the recovery of debts under 40s are held once in three weeks respectively, by the seueschals of the different manors of Castle Mahon, Coolfadda and Clough McSimon, belonging to the noblemen before-named.  Bandon returns one member to the Imperial Parliament in the person of William Shaw Esq, S Bolton Street, London W.  Bandon confers the title of baron on the family of Bernard.

 

There are two Episcopal churches belonging respectively to the parishes of Ballymodan and Kilbrogan – the former is a very elegant Gothic structure, the first stone of which was laid on the 9th of March, 1847, by the Earl of Bandon, who subscribed the magnificent sum of stg 700.  It was opened for public worship on the 30th of August, 1849 and the total cost amounted to stg 13,000 – stg 4,000 of which was subscribed by friends and parishioners.  Kilbrogan church commonly called Christ Church is in a cruelform structure begun in 1610 and finished by the first Earl of Cork in 1625.  The other places of worship are a Roman Catholic chapel; one each for Wesleyan and Primitive Methodists; one for Presbyteriansx; a Scots church, and a chapel attached to the Presentation Convent.  The sisters of the last named establishment devote themselves assiduously to the instruction of the poor children of the town and its vicinity.  The charitable institutions are a union workhouse, a female school of industry, a Protestant charity school for boys, two Catholic charity schools for children of both sexes and several Sunday schools.  About half a mile west of the town is Castle Bernard, the delightful residence of the Earl of Bandon.  This elegant structure has two regular fronts, ornamented with Corinthian pillars of Portland stone; the apartments are sumptuously furnished and convenient, and the mansion is surrounded with tastefully disposed shrubberies, walks, gardens, and a noble park four miles in extent.  Numerous other seats, the residences of opulent and spirited proprietors, tend to enliven the vicinity of Bandon.  The markets, which are well supplied with all kinds of provisions and cattle, are held on Wednesday and Saturday.  Fairs, May 6th, Holy Thursday, October 29th, November 8th and the first Wednesdy in each of the other months.  The population of the town and borough in 1851 was 6,929 and in 1861 6243.

 

Innishannon is a post village and parish, partly in the barony of East Carbery but chiefly in that of Kinnalea, same county as Bandon, 4 miles E of that town, seated on the north bank of the Bandon river, in the midst of picturesque scenery.  A great number of boats arrive here with every tide, laden with sand from Kinsale harbour.    The river, which is crossed by a neat bridge of six arches, abounds with fish above the town.  The places of worship are the parish church and a Roman Catholic chapel – the former, situated near the river in a thick plantation, is a very neat edifice with tower and spire.  A fever hospital and a dispensary are the charitable establishments.  Population of the parish in 1861  2,103 and of the village 426.
