being made Ballyconnell Bridge in Ballyconnell town was also built as they only had a ford to cross by before that. The old road that was in use before the new one is still to be had and is now called the "Grassy lane". It went from Derryginny in a straight line across all hills about a quarter of a mile on the mountain side of the new road. Some parts of it are made by the county yet, other parts of it are walled across and have grass growing on them but it can still be traced to Killaduff graveyard where there are the remains of an old church. The road continues until it turns for the left at the long bridge into Swanlinbar.
