  1. The local roads are known by the following names: - the main road from Dublin to Sligo is called the coach road, a branch of this at Ballagh bridge and this branch is called the Drumlish. There are several other roads branching off the Drumlish road such as - Larry's lane which branches off the Drumlish and connects it with the Dublin - Sligo road or the coach as it mainly called. There is another branch at Duffy's and this branch is called Murray's lane and it connects the Drumlish road with the Currygranny road. Another branch goes up to Leitrim and another branch to Mohill. Those two branches break off at Briskill cross-roads. From the branch that goes on to Mohill there is a small lane joining it with the Drumlish road beside the school. There is another branch off the Drumlish road about six or seven miles from Longford and this branch joins the Drumlish road with another main road from Longford to Drumlish. There is one old mass-path joining the Breanrisk road with the Drumlish road.
