What is recorded here
Macmine Castle in County Wexford, Ireland, is where Emily Henrietta Hickey was born in 1845. She grew into a poet whose words filled magazines and books across England, yet her life began inside that castle's walls. Perhaps she first heard rhythm in castle echoes before she ever wrote a line.
