Description
Described as a disused roadway (L c. 800m) on a Longfield map (NLI: Ms 21.F.43) dated 1818, and situated on an undulating landscape. According to the map it runs N-S following the townland boundary between Feamore and Lisbaun for much of its length, but it does not survive. A short stretch of a raised road (Wth 2.5m; H 1m) with an earthen bank (Wth 2.5m; H 0.4m) on its E side survives (L c. 100m) at its S end in Lisbaun, S of the WNW-ESE Curraghboy - Kiltoom road.
