Drumcree Mill: Turning the Wheel of Memory
Acheson’s, or Drumcree Mill, is remembered in this first episode of a rich two-part Memory Meitheals feature. Neighbours Florrie Moynihan (née Rowley), her brother Mel Rowley and Gerry Reilly guide us through the bustle, craft and community that once surrounded the mill, sharing memories of its workers and of Albert Acheson, the last miller to keep it turning.
This first episode captures the working world of the mill and the strong ties between neighbours — offering a rare and intimate insight into a vanished way of life.
