The "Living in History guide to Forkhill and Mullaghbawn" published by the Ring of Gullion.org says of this building on School Road: "It was started in 1856; the principal was James Kirk who was just 21 years old. He taught 40 children in one room measuring just fifteen by thirteen feet. The school is now a vacant building and the school has moved to a modern purpose built building Image] but is still named for St Oliver Plunkett as the original school was."
