Here is a list of local roads, Coole road, The Summerhill road, The Clonlyon road, The Dark road, The New road, the Old road.

The Coole road goes from Garadice to Kelly's crossroads.
The Clonlyon road is sometimes called the new road, it leads from Garadice crossroads to Clonlyon bridge.
The Dark road leads from Coole to Kelly's crossroads. It is called "the Dark road" on account of the trees which are growing along quite close to one another. In summer time these trees form an arch all along hence it is called the dark road.
