They were from Liverpool and opened the mills in the following year By the Ballincollig Gunpowder Mills employed workers, and just two years later the mills were exporting 17, cases of Gunpowder per year. Exports went to Africa in exchange for Palm Oil. The development of the Powder Mills continued, and at one stage the mills employed up to people, to provide the gunpowder needs for the construction industry especially railways, mining, and quarrying. By twenty water wheels were in use, but decline set in from onwards.

In the site was bought by Cork County Council, and this facilitated the development of the highly successful Ballincollig Regional Park.

By then, Keane was a widow living in a pretty cottage overlooking the sea in the village of Ardmore, County Waterford.

But to get the full experience, a number of houses in the Blackwater Valley — where Keane used to socialise — combine a historic past with a modern and luxurious present. Dromana , part of a acre estate near Cappoquin, not far from where Keane spent her married life, sits on a rocky outcrop overlooking the river and has been in the ownership of the same family for years. Fortwilliam House , on the southern bank, is about two miles upstream from Lismore Castle.

Both are available to let — at Dromana there is the choice of the East Wing, rich in old-world charm, which sleeps eight, or the cosy River cottage; while Fortwilliam has seven double bedrooms as well as another wing, accommodating 24 in total — and from either house, guests have the opportunity to fish the finest salmon beats in Ireland.

The Big House welcomes guests with a dramatic sweeping staircase beneath a high arched window, and there are also cottages to let in the grounds. These grand properties survived intact, but other Anglo-Irish houses were less fortunate. The ruin remains in much the same condition as when the insurgents left it. The estate is now a forestry park and you can follow an eerie path into the woods and see the house and the old walled garden that was next to it.
