SAILING INTO WALPOLE'S MARSH. AKA and see "Finnerty's." Irish, Reel (4/4 time). A Dorian. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA’BB. The title apparently refers to poaching for wild ducks on a landowner's marsh in the West of Ireland, or to poachers who fished by night in Lord Walpole's waters [1]. Paul de Grae [2] notes that fiddler Paddy O'Sullivan (West Commons, Ardfert, Co. Kerry) claimed he and friends named the reel after a local landmark while playing on a boat, enjoying the acoustics. The marsh is along Barrow Harbour a few miles northwest of Tralee. O’Sullivan said the tune came from Dingle (Daingean U ́ı Chuis). Abetya et al [3] note that the reel was picked up from O'Sullivan by Nicky McAuliffe (Brosna Ceili Band) and Brian Keane who played it in the 1972 All-Ireland, which they won. From there it was picked up by others.

"Jerry McMahon's" is a reel that has a cognate first strain, and there are similarities in the beginning of "Walpole's Marsh" to “Castle Kelly.”
