Beyond that, the details are thin. The source material for this particular site has not yet been made publicly available, which places it in a curious category: known, named, and mapped, but not yet fully spoken for.

Mills of this kind, whether horizontal-wheeled grain mills of early medieval origin or the later vertical-wheeled structures that followed in the post-medieval period, were once a fixture of the Irish rural landscape. Almost every parish had one, often sited where a reliable stream provided the necessary fall of water. The townland name Drumbane, derived from the Irish meaning something close to "white ridge", suggests elevated ground nearby, which in turn often means the watercourses running off such ridges were exactly the sort that millwrights sought out. Without further documentation, it is not possible to say when this particular mill was built, who owned it, or what became of it, and any attempt to fill those gaps would be guesswork rather than history.
