    Vernegyle Road.
    This road runs from the School Cross at Bannow in a North Westerly direction to the Moor Cross. It serves 4 farm houses and two small thatched cottages. A narrow road.

    New Road
    Taking a turn to the left at the Moor Cross we come to another cross about 50 yds away. This Cross is known as Molly's Cross and the road westward therefrom is a wide one as far as Newtown Cross.
    The road is called the New Road.

    Quay Road
    A narrow little-used road runs down to the shore of Bannow Bay at the Old Quay which contains remnants of a pier and huge ruins of a former store. This road is called the Quay Road. It is not presently in repair beyond the entrance to "the Cottage."

    Newtown Road
    This road leads through townlands of Kiltra, Newtown and Brandane and drops sharply to the shore of the bay at the "Cockle Strand". it serves a number of imposing farmhouses and also several cottages. The Quay Road and Rath Road are branches to the West both terminating at the sea.
