Subject: Origins: Where is Carrighfergus? From: GUEST,ChildoftheSea Date: 25 Feb 06 - 02:25 PM I know this song is a version of "The Water is Wide", but I was wondering where the places of the song were? I found Kilkenny when I looked on a map of Ireland, but wondered where Carrighfergus and Ballygrant were, as I could not find them on a map, and only found lyrics on a Google search. Thanks! |
Subject: RE: Origins: Carrighfergus From: Pauline L Date: 25 Feb 06 - 02:48 PM We have already discussed this at length on another thread. You may not have found it because of the spelling: Carrickfergus. The whole issue is intriguing, and the tune is haunting and beautiful.
