NEWMARKET,
I \ MARKET town, in tlie parish of C L O N F E B T , barony
of DuhaUow, county of Cork, is 155 miles s.w. from
Dublin, 38 N.W. from Cork, and about five N.W. from
Kanturk; situated near the north-western boundary of
the county, ou a small stream which falls into the river
Dallua, a little below the town, and which propels a corn
mill, the property of James L. O'Keeffe, Esq.
The
ancient name of this place was Ahahasne, or " the place
of the ford," from its situation near a ford, now superseded
by a neat bridge, at the entrance of the town. Its present
name is derived from the establishment of its market,
granted to the Aldwortli family by James I. It consists
principally of two streets intersecting each other, aud
contiguous to the town is its principal ornament, Newmarket House, the elegant mansion of Richard OUver
Aldworth, Esq., tbe lord of the manor. The trade of the
place is almost limited to sbopkeeping. Petty sessions are
POST OFFICE,
held fortnightly! on Tuesday, in the court house, a stona
building, beneath which the market i« held.
The Protestant Episcopal church, a neat structure,
possesses little to attract notice, and its lofty tower and
spire alone render it conspicuous. The Roman Catholic
church is of considerable dimensions ; the site of it was
a gift of tlie late Richard Aldworth, Esq., who also contributed towards the expense of its erection. The altar,
ivliieh is much admired, is a copy from that of the ancient
abbey of Quin. Schools under the National Education
Board have been established by Lady Mary Aldworth and
the Rev. Canon O'Mahony. Newmarket was the birthplace of the celebrated John Philpot Curran. Fairs are
held on 31st January, l l t h February, 6tli March, 21st
April, l l t h May, 8tli Juue, 16th July, 15th August, 29th
