  1. A Mass Path

    Share Share Post
    29th November 1938

    My father told me the following about the Mass Path in Baltinglass.

    There is a Mass Path over the South-West end of Baltinglass Hill, on which the people used to walk to Mass during the Penal Days. This path leads from Chapel Hill through Timmin's Lane around the foot of the hill, eastwards to Coolinarig and to Boleylug.
