  1. Local Roads

    Share Share Post
    There is a road called the Old Dublin road going across the Mountains at Glenmalure, it was a short cut to Dublin long ago.
    There is a mass path going to Greenane Chapel across the fields instead of coming through Greenane.
    There is a path going across the Hills from Ballinacor to Drumgoff. It is half a mile shorter than going by the road.

    There is an old road up by our house and it leads to Aughrim, and it starts in Dublin. There is a giant's grave beside the road.
    There was an old road through our hill and it lead to Macreddin. But now it is covered.
