What is recorded here

Laurence wall’s Castle vanished before records began, leaving Kilmallock with a hole shaped like a tower. In 1653 men still called it old, which means stones stood tall while ancestors drew breath and cast shadows. The earth keeps that much from history: a castle large enough to occupy, a wall high enough to break a fall, and a man brave enough to build both before forgetting them.
