Camolin P.O. |
In 1885 Bassett's
"Wexford Borough Guide and
Directory" the
following description of Camolin appeared
|
Long, broad and comfortable looking street forms the village of
Camolin, which is a quarter of a mile from the station of
Dublin,Wicklow,and Wexford railway 6 miles from Gorey. It derives
its name from a religious house founded by St.Molin, second bishop
of Ferns, who died in the seventh century ,small ruins of which
are to be found on the Norrismount estate. A pattern fair is held
annually, on the 9th of July , but its popularity is
waning. Camolin is in the Barony of Scarawalsh, and in 1881 the
population of village and townsland was estimated at 416. Among
the handsome private residences of the vicinity are those of Major
Morgan George Lloyd, Camolin Park and Rev. Francis Brownrigg,
Norrismount.
