Astonishingly, the rain has stopped and the sun is out. The ocean in the distance is blue. It is freakishly perfect weather for a visit to Fanad Lighthouse, which was automated in 1983. There’s a palaver while exiting the bus, because TG4 is there, filming the Marys as they get off. More pictures follow, and more filming. On the helipad, in front of the lighthouse, with staff and without staff, with Marys jumping, and Marys looking at the surreally photogenic ocean. I look at my watch and estimate that roughly one-third of all their time today was spent posing for pictures and videos. Those sponsors are definitely getting their money’s worth.
At the lighthouse, which has some fascinating historic artefacts and displays, the Marys wait their turn to go up the spiral stone stairs to the top, which can only accommodate eight at a time. Philadelphia Mary (Anne Marie McCafferty) is wearing a little gold crucifix around her neck, which I ask about. “My faith is very important to me,” she says. She and other Marys talk about the relevance of the festival in 2023. The consensus is that the core meaning is located in “the spirit of Dungloe and its community. Community is what keeps it going.”

NATIONAL LIGHTHOUSE DAY

Our new addition to Fanad Lighthouse
Replica of the HMS Saldanha

The wrecking of HMS Saldanha was the motivation for the building of Fanad Lighthouse. On the night of 4th December 1811, the Saldanha – a Royal Navy frigate – struck rocks near Fanad Head during a violent storm and ran aground at Ballymastocker Bay.

A big thank you to DCC and the TIDE project who commissioned this piece and especially to Rosemary and the team at Greencastle Maritime museum for allowing us to have it in Fanad.
