Father Griffin Road is a relatively new road. It was built in the early 1930s. Fr Griffin was a young priest who was abducted, tortured and killed by the Black and Tans during the War of Independence and he was an obvious choice when it came to naming the road.

The place-name Shantalla is derived from the Irish ‘Sean Talamh’ meaning old ground, though why Shantalla should be older than the ground around it is a mystery. Maybe a lot of it was never worked and left wild. Sometimes the name was written as Shantallow, and locally it was always known as ‘Shantla’.
