A view of the textile mill on the road to Rochestown on the outskirts of Cork city in about 1905. It is possible that the image shows one of the many textile mills which operated in the Douglas area of Cork at the beginning of the twentieth century. Douglas began to develop as an urban settlement in the early eighteenth century. The mills produced sailcloth and supplied sails to the Royal Navy among other clients.
