The Bothar Dub leads from Staleen, parish of Donore, to Roughgrange. It is a very old road with high banks on each side, and the soil is black. At one time it was thought that there was coal in the vicinity. - At one time there was a road from Reids' Lane at Donore, across the mountains and out on the Staleen Road at Tobar-sa-manna. It was called "Crab Lane."

- The Donore Rd. to Drogheda used to pass in by the back of the house now occupied by Nicholas Doonan and up by Mullacroghan House.
- There is a field at Mullacroghan and it is called the 'Gravel Hole' but years ago it was called 'The Ban' because linen used to be steeped in the pond that is in the middle of the field.
