    Strand Road
    leads through Cashelane to the western end of Drishane It is so called because it leads to Stony Beach - a strand in the western end of Drishane. This road was made about thirty five years ago by Dan Mehigan and his brother of Drishane who took it on contract for a sum of thirty pounds. It is about a quarter of a mile long.
