Boland's flour mills

The Dublin based flour dynasty erected the stone portions of their mills in the nineteenth century, overlooking the Grand Canal's Ringsend Basin. These structures gained fame due to being occupied by Nationalist forces during the 1916 Easter uprising. The concrete silos were added in the 1940s.

Taken over by food giant IAWS in 1948, production finally ended in 2001. The site has stood derelict since then awaiting redevelopment.
