- The main road from Dublin to Athlone, and Galway passes by Palmerstown.It was one of the old stage coach roads. I heard of no incidents, robberies or otherwise in connection with that time for any of the people of the district except that those who drove the coaches rested at a house in the Mill Lane.There is an old archway in a very high wall at the east end of Clarkville Terrace, where the road turns northwards to the Mill Lane, from the Main Road.
