Road – road/trackway, Ballyhennessy, Co. Clare

In the townland of Ballyhennessy in County Clare, a route old enough to be classified as an archaeological monument runs through the landscape.

Roads and trackways of this kind are among the least glamorous entries in the Irish archaeological record, yet they are often among the most revealing. Unlike a tower house or a standing stone, a preserved road asks a very particular question: who was going somewhere, and why did they keep going there?
