- The names of the local roads are the Avenue, the New Line and Byrne's Road. The Avenue leads from Cloghernagh to Orchardstown. The New Line leads from Kilmacleague to Ballymintre. Byrne's Road leads from Corbally to Leperstown. The Avenue was made before the Famine but it was only a boirín; but during the Famine it was made level. This was done as a relief work. The New Line and Byrne's Road were made as to give relief work. There are some old roads in my district. These roads are still used.
