By the way, there are quite a few unusual townlands out there, and maybe there are two adjacent townlands somewhere with the same name with a road as the border between them.
E.g. the place we all know as "The Curragh" is made of two adjacent townlands called..."Curragh". See http://mapwarper.net/maps/5170 (but in this case the border is not a road) The distinction is that each townland is in a different Civil Parish as you can see here: http://maps.openstreetmap.ie/civilparish_barony.html?zoom=13&lat=53.14828&lon=-6.83636&layers=BFTFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFTF .
