    Another road called the “Ballindoon road” leads from the crossroads at Mr Lavin’s to the crossroads at Martin’s. This is a very short road about one mile long. There are also many hills on this road for its length and it runs along the edge of Ballindoon wood.
    Another road which runs from “Lavin’s cross” to Riverstown is called the Doonsheheen road. This road is much longer than the “Ballindoon road” but is not so hilly. It runs very near the cairn of Heapstown being in one place about thirty feet from it.
    There are many paths in this district, most of them are near ways from one road to another or run through woods. New roads are being made in this district to accommodate people who are not living near the public road. Old roads are being repaired and this gives much needed employment to youth of the district.
