Bóthar an Ime / Bóthar an Chuinsailéara
Tá aithne forleathan ar an mbóthar seo, a bhí in úsáid san ochtú agus sa luath-naoú chéad déag, faoin dá anim seo. Iompraíodh im ó Chiarraí Theas ar an mbóthar seo go dtí margadh an ime i gCorcaigh. Luadh an bóthar freisin i measc na coitiantachta leis an gCuinsailéar, Dónall Ó Conaill. Bhí tionchar mór ar stair na hÉireann agus na Breataine ag na turasanna go dtí Baile Átha Cliath agus Londain a thosnaigh sé ar an mbóthar seo.
This road, which was in use during the 18th and early 19th centuries, is often known by either of these two names.
