    There are many roads in this parish. Barron's road was called after the Barron's who resided on it. The Castle road is so called from Butlerstown Castle. There is a tarred road, called the Cork road, and another, called the Tramore road.
    The Knockeen road, Ballycashin road Green road, Hall's road the old Cork road behind Hearn's of Killottern Grassy road and Killronan road are names of others. Barron's road and the Tramore road lead us to town or Tramore. All those roads are still in use. Pierry Walshe's lane was made by King James. There is a Mass path going from the back of Joe Power's house to the Holy Cross. There is another going through the lios. There is an át near Hayes's house, in Whitfield. There is a road crossing it. It gave water to the people around.
