New Castle is a castle in County Limerick, Ireland. Perhaps its stones still hold the shape of hands that built them, waiting for someone to remember the weight of each brick.

Imagine a kitchen fire burning at dawn, the smell of bread moving through empty chambers until the house became warm enough to keep.
