    The Ballyporeen Road
    This road stretches from my own house to the village of Ballyporeen. This road was made during the Famine times. there was a road from Bob Coleman's, Araglen, Kilworth, to John Condon's of the same townland. This road is not used now, it is only a "Mass Path". It was made during the great Famine to help the people to get money to buy food.
    Bohereen na gCloch
    This road stretches from Con Leddy's of Araglen to the "New Chapel", Araglen. There is a an old "Mass Path" from the top of Liss, Araglen to Crinactane. The people that travel it must cross the Araglen River. The river is crossed by a chumar or a ford.
