    “There are many roads all over Ireland. ...”

    Share Share Post
    There are many old roads all over Ireland. Their ruins can be seen to day. There is a ruin of an old road at Letcher Sheanta. People used only get four pence a day. They used to have indian meal stirabout for their lunch. There is another ruin in Barr a Luasgán. One day a fine young man got killed in Barr a Luasgán. He was riding a horse and the horse shied at a black thorn bush and he fell off and got killed.
