John Hanly Tweed

What is John Hanly Tweed?

John Hanly is one of the oldest mills in Ireland. It was founded by Denis Hanly and his son in an area called Ballyartella, on the banks of the River Nenagh in County Tipperary.

Farmers from the surrounding area brought the Hanlys the wool from their sheep, which was then spun, woven and washed in the soft water of the river. In 1952 a fire destroyed 4 of the mill's 6 floors. After that, the Hanlys decided to concentrate solely on weaving cloth.

Today Brian Hanly, the fourth generation of the family, runs the mill and produces tweed inspired by the beautiful landscape of the province of Munster in the south of Ireland. In the far south, the Gulf Stream gives this landscape almost tropical vegetation.

Further north lie the long beaches of Dingle Bay and the rivers and lakes along the Shannon and its estuary near Limerick.

John Hanly uses only natural fibres. As it did more than a hundred years ago, the water of the River Nenagh drives the turbine that generates electricity for the mill. At John Crocket, John Hanly Tweed is used, among other pieces, for a men's tweed coat.
