  1. Old Roads

    Share Share Post
    In the village of Tonemoyle where I live there are a lot of roads leading from the principal road. It leads from the Kilgevrin road and it ends in the Tuam road. It is called the Tonemoyle road. There is a road leading from it to the bog and from that there are a lot of old roads leading to certain banks in the bog. They were made about a hundred years ago. From the middle of the road there is a road leading to another bog. It is an old road and it is used yet. At the end of the village there is a road leading to a village called Curahan and most people go to Tuam on that road.
