In the eighteenth century, the Cahir–Clogheen section was part of the main road from Cashel to Cork city. It was superseded in the early 19th century by the construction of what is now the R639 road between Cahir and Mitchelstown.

The R665 crosses the R668 at Clogheen. At Glentanagree Bridge, the R669 forks off to the south east past Mount Melleray to Cappoquin.
