    The Roads in the District
    About a mile from Barnaderg there is a stone bridge. The place is called "Polla Chappall", because it is said that the horses belonging to the Mail Coach fell into a steep incline there one time.
    The roads went straight up from there for about one quarter of a mile and then turned came out again where there is a small bridge which is known as the "Droctachen" afterwards the main road was made.
