NEWMILLS, a village, in the parish of TULLANISKIN,
barony of DUNGANNON, county of TYRONE, and
province of ULSTER, 3 miles (N. N. E.) from Dungannon,
on the road to Cookstown; containing 105 inhabitants.
It derives its name (formerly Tullaniskin) from two
corn-mills erected here, in 1758, by the proprietor of
the adjoining lands; and in 1831 comprised 20 houses,
most of which are indiiferently built. Here is the parochial
church, a large and handsome edifice, in the later
English style, with a square embattled tower; and nearly
adjoining it is the parochial school, with a residence for
the master, endowed with a portion of the glebe land,
comprising one acre. The ruins of the ancient church
adjoin the present edifice. See TULLANISKIN.
