What is recorded here

Ballymonaster holds a bawn, yet the official record withholds its shape and history. The missing data transforms the place into a challenge, forcing imagination to fill the gap left behind. What is hidden may be more interesting than what is known, waiting for someone clever enough to ask the right questions.
