Anthony says: "The Kilmichael Coastguard station included a "rocket cart house" The rockets had nothing to do with warfare. The rockets were fired,with a line attached to reach a ship in difficulties. They were a means of saving life as a bosun's chair could be pulled out by the line and enabled people to be pulled into shore. There was quite a lot of equipment which was all contained on a two or four-wheeled cart as in many instances the equipment would be pulled for some miles to reach a stranded ship in imminent danger. This is just a clarification on the use of the "Rocket House" Regards Tony Daly "

Owner reply:
History is interesting. Our neighbors even mentioned there was ammunition in the cottage...at one point there was even a still there. One could suppose you could say this was a multi use facility at one point. Now we are pleased and privileged to own a piece of history.
