MountRath is present day Mountrath in County Laois, historically a prominent industrial town with a thriving ironworks, cotton mill and tannery. Today it is a small market town. The iron industry, established in the early 17th century flourished for a century and a half. It resulted in the destruction of the surrounding forests for timber.
