    Local roads
    The name of the road that passes my house is called the New Road because it is the last road made in this district. It is two miles long it was made in the year 1910 and it goes from the town's land of Springhall to the town's land of Hilltown and the name of the town's land that's in between is Baltrasna.
    Just a little bit above the beginning of the New Road there is a crossroads and it is called Moylough crossroads, there is a road going from it and it is called The Moylough road it is about 3 miles long and it goes from the crossroads to Dromone. From the same crossroads there is an other road and it goes to Oldcastle it is about 3 miles long
