0 a narrow lane (= a small road) in the countryside:
The couple bought a neglected farmhouse at the end of an overgrown kilometre-long boreen in West Cork.
As we were driving along the coast road to Sligo, Peter slowed down beside the entrance to a narrow lane, or boreen.
Martin drives up a hilly boreen known locally as the Mayo Lane.
He had frequently led patrols along the narrow roads and boreens that ran like veins through the countryside about Cork.
Up roads and down boreens I went in the truck, carrying turf.
