What is recorded here
Charles Flanagan is a birthplace in Mountmellick, County Laois, Ireland. Perhaps the house where he entered the world in 1956 still stands behind a common wall, waiting for a visitor who recognises the shape of his future. Maybe the streets remember the boy before they learned the politician, holding his childhood in a quiet corner of County Laois.
