Lombardstown is a village seven miles from the town of Mallow in County Cork, Ireland.[1]
It has a Co-op and a post office. Its main employer is the mill. For generations many locals used to gather at this mill while waiting for their supply of flour to be dispatched. This gave these locals the opportunity to discuss the features and benefits of the flours as they waited for their flour to be processed and bagged. To this day the locals still use the popular saying ...' I baked that from the mill '... when discussing the fruits of their baking. The iced cherry bun is a favourite locally and beyond.
