DUNDALK DISTILLERY AND THE BIG FIRE
Distilling took place on the site of The Old Dundalk Distillery from 1708 until 1926, one hundred years ago this year. The company was wrapped up in 1929. From 1800 it was in the hands of Messrs. Malcolm Brown & Co.
The big fire occurred on 22 November 1862 after a fire started in the malt drying kilns and spread to the corn store which was destroyed.
The site is currently the location of The Louth County Museum and The Louth County Library, in beautifully restored warehouse buldings.
