Details
The village contains a pub, a shop which opens on Wednesdays to sell the local newspapers, and very little else. Also located here is the Colclough Memorial Hall, which is used for community activities, especially card playing among the village's many elderly residents. It is named after the Colclough family who once lived at nearby Tintern Abbey. The Colcloughs first arrived at the former Abbey in the 16th century and left in 1959. Saltmills itself was established in 1814 by Caesar Colclough to replace the old village at Tintern Abbey which was then demolished.
Transport
Bus Éireann route 373 provides a service to Wexford, New Ross and Wellingtonbridge on Tuesdays. The village is also served on certain days by Wexford Local Link.
