There is a hill at the back of the Araglen Schools which is known as "Pauly's Hill" It is so called because a smith by the name of Pauly had a forge at the side of the road.
"Donegan's Bridge" is so called because a man by the name of Michael Donegan lived near the bridge. "Donegan's Hill" leads from "Donegan's Bridge to "Carthy's Cross". This cross got its name because a family by the name of Mc. Carthy live near the cross.
Collis's Gate is so called because it was the gate of the entrance to the avenue leading to Colliss's estate. "Mitchelstown Road" is so called because it is travelled by people going from this side to Mitchelstown.
