    called the "Srait'. the old people say that there is a light seen there at eleven o'clock on certain nights.
    A man was coming from visiting one night and he saw the light and it kept in front of him to the house. The next day a cow was dead on him and the people said it must be for a death he saw it so nobody ever since past there any latter than ten o'clock. This little road is very small and therefore it is called "bóithrín'.
    This road is situated in Clooncara.
