  2. Old Roads

    Share Share Post
    There is an old road running from the Knocknagree-Rathmore road. It runs through Edmond Sweeney's land until it crosses the Abha na Luinghe Báine and the Laxie road. It was made about the year 1840. A continuation of this road runs through Nohoval Upper, Nohoval Lower, and Nohoval Daly until it joins the Duncannon road near Rathmore.
    There is an old road running from Rathmore school to the East as far as Millstreet and it is known as the "coach road" because in olden times a stage coach drawn by horses used to travel over it.
    There is an old road running leading from the Nohoval road through Tim Brien's land into the Nohoval bog.
