    The Local Roads
    The Local Roads are known as the Main-road, the New-road, the Old-road, and the Wood-lane.
    The Main-road runs from Cheekpoint to Waterford. There are smaller roads running from the main road to different places.
    The New-road starts at the Rookery, Cheekpoint and meets the main road close to Faithlegg Chapel. The New-road is about a mile long.
    The Old-road starts at the 'Street', Cheekpoint and ends below Faithlegg school.
    The Wood-lane leads from Coolbunia over a hill called the Hurt-hill. It reaches the main-road near Passage east.
    The Shylaun starts on the beach under the Hurt-hill and ends on top of the Hurt-hill.
    The Rushing-side-road starts at the Light-house Cheekpoint and ends at the Hall.
