  1. Roads.
    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.

  2. 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."
