What is recorded here

Dromlohan castle appeared in the Desmond Roll of 1583, but no exact mark remains for it now. Prospect Hill is the usual guess, yet the name alone still carries the weight of a building that somebody stood beneath. The loss is not emptiness. It is a room whose door has been forgotten, waiting for someone to stop pretending the wall is solid.
