View of Cawley Farm, Knockahoney

The video at the end of this post was taken from the Walsh family farm, July, 2011, and is looking over what had been the Cawley family farm in Knockahoney, County Sligo, Ireland.  The photo at the top of this blog is the gabled house that is referred to in the video and is copied again in this post.

When the camera scans from the Cawley farm to the Walsh farm, it ends on the home built by John O'Hara and Bridget Walsh, c1941.
