What is recorded here

Ancient road described by O'Kelly (1944, 20) as following; 'On the E. side of the main road from Holy Cross to Bruff, and running at right angles to it, is what seems to be a sort of sunken way (like Cladh na Leac [LI032-041001-]). On one side it is marked by a low fence on which small boulders are set at intervals. It is only traceable for the width of two fields, but if continued for the width of another field to the E., it would cut into Cladh na Leac. On O Lochlainn's map is shown a road from Limerick to Holy Cross, but the map is not sufficiently detailed to decide whether this piece of road is part of that route or not'. The precise location of this ancient roadway has not been identified. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 06 August 2019
