The
Low Country is the middle
section of the Ards Peninsula of
County Down, Northern Ireland -
the most easterly point in Ireland.
It is only 20 miles from Scotland,
dotted with small farms and villages,
halls and harbours. This is where the
four of us grew up and still live.
From
Carrowdore to Kirkistown,
our ancestors worked the fields and
harbours here for at least 400 years,
people who read their Burns and
knew their Bibles.
And
from time to time, they got their
fiddles out and enjoyed some music!
