Nora Daly was a woman who was evicted from her home on Clare Island during the Great Famine, and was forced to wander the roads by day and night. There is a legend on Clare Island that wherever she walked, no matter how heavy the rain, sleet or snow, it never touched her.

Hence the Saw Doctors lyric "Nora Daly's Home - where she walked it never rained" in the song "Clare Island".
