Henry and Coghlan’s General Directory of Cork for 1867 For which is incorporated
Wynne & Co’s Business Directory of the Principal Towns in the Province
of Munster. In addition to the corn and provision trade there are two breweries, an extensive distillery, three tanneries, three banks, two hotels and several flour mills. The shopkeepers who carry oin a very extensive retail trade, are numerous and highly respectable. A limited trade is carried on by the river, which is navigable for barges to Innishannon, four miles from the town. General sessions for the west riding are held in October or November, and petty sessions for the division every Monday. Manorial courts for the recovery of debts under 40s are held once in three weeks respectively, by the seneschals of the different manors of Castle Mahon, Coolfadda and Clough McSimon. Bandon returns one member to the Imperial Parliament in the person of the Right Hon. Lord Viscount Bernard of Castle Bernard. There
are two churches under the establishment, belonging respectively to the
parishes of Ballymodan and Kilbrogan – the former is a very elegant
Gothic structure, the first stone of which was laid oni the 9th
day of March, 1847, by the present Earl of Bandon, who subscribed the
magnificent sum of stg 700. It was opened for public worship on the 30th
of August, 1849, and the total cost amounted to stg 18,000, stg 4,000 of
which was subscribed by friends and parishioners. The organ which cost
stg 700, was presented by the Very Rev. Richard Boyle Bernard, DD, late
dean of Leighlin. Kilbrogan Church, commonly called Christ Church is a
cruciform structure, begun in 1610, and finished by the first Earl of
Cork in 1625. The other places of worship are two spacious Roman
Catholic chapels – one which was built in 1796; one each for Wesleyan
and Primitive Methodists; one for Presbyterians; a Scots church, and a
chapel attached to the Presentation Convent. About half a mile west of
the town is Castle Bernard, the delightful residence of the Earl of
Bandon. This elegant structure has two regular fronts, ornamented with
Corinthian pillars of Portland stone; the apartments are sumptuously
furnished and convenient, and the mansion is surrounded with tastetfully
disposed shrubberies, walks, gardens, and a noble park four miles in
extent. Numerous other seats, the residence of opulent and spirited
proprietors, tend to enliven the vicinity of Bandon. For further
particulars referring to this town, we must refer our readers to Mr.
Bennett’s History of Bandon, published by us Price Three Shillings. The
markets, which are well supplied with all kinds of provisions and
cattle, are held on Wednesday and Saturday. Fairs, May 6th,
Holy Thursday, October 29th, November 8th and the
first Wednesday in each of the other months. The population of the town
and borough, in 1861 was 6,243. PUBLIC OFFICERS, INSTITUTIONS, &c Poor Law Union* - Master, Wm.
