The
Present day photograph shows that the houses in 'Abbey View' at Muckamore
have not changed much. These were mill workers homes for York Street Flax
& Spinning Company had a large mill here. In the Past photograph the larger
houses at each end of the road housed the 'Gaffers'. The house to your left
also had the Post office and the one at the other end housed also the general
store. There is another row of houses behind this one and it is called 'Race
View' because you can see the nearby mill race.
