Notes from Paddy's book:
-------------------------

"Carrig River" belongs to Wexford town. It was written by James "Messa" Nolan and James "Shaw" McGrath from the Hill Street area of Wexford town in 1890.
Carrig Wood was a popular area for townspeople to stroll on a Sunday aternoon before the arrival of the motor car. This quiet and pleasant rural area is scarcely considered today, but its name is well revered by the older generation of Wexford town.
