    about eighty years. There is a mass path in Killavil also. It leads from Scully's house to the church. In olden times the people went to Mass that way. There is a road in Killavil and it leads from the main road to an iron gate beyond Horan's house. Long ago it went farther. It was leading into Paddy Keenan's house but is closed from the gate now. It is sixty years old. There is a cross-roads near Kllavil school and it is called "Arlee" crossroads. It was a great place for dances and tossing money. It is about one hundred years old. There is a "Ford" in Spurtown.
