my grandparents are buried in this
old Faughart cemetery next to the holy well. The wishing tree, with its written intentions of paper or cloth tied to it's branches overhangs Mary McCoy Daly's headstone. She was an educated, powerful woman who spoke Gaelic and recounted the old stories from the oral tradition. The cemetery has all the elements of a very ancient megalithic holy place including a stone circle. The energy of the place causes a shift in consciousness that transports you back to those old times.
