  1. The Local Roads

    Share Share Post
    There is a lot of small roads in the district of Gowran & these are called lanes or bóithríns. Some of them lead to a forest & others lead to old houses.
    Some of the small roads were made by the cows trampling to & from home to be milked morning & night & the continual trampling hardened them.
