The remains of a windmill built by Robert Ffrench (built c1750) survives at Knockcorrandoo just of the walking trails in Monivea woods. It was used to grind corn. A rectangular window is located on the first floor level. The location of the wooden stairs also survives inside the structure.
The icehouse in Monivea Woods was built c.1860 by the Ffrench family. An icehouse is a structure that was used to store ice in the winter for cooling purposes in the summer. Icehouses were usually built underground or partially buried to keep the temperature low and prevent the ice from melting. The roof was make of earth. Icehouses were often filled with ice from nearby ponds or lakes during the winter, and then covered with straw or sawdust to insulate them. Icehouses were used to preserve food, such as meat, dairy, and fruit.
This path in Monivea Woods is known as the mass path. The mass track trail is 1.3 Kms
