What is recorded here
Clarke places a prison inside Dublin Castle around 1224, but the exact chamber has vanished without a trace. It operated in shadow long enough to leave no visible scar, then disappeared completely before 1606. The building swallowed its own history, leaving behind only a vague mention and a empty space where fear once lived.
Clarke mentions the former existence of a prison in Dublin Castle in c. 1224, gone by 1606 (2002, 23). Not precisely located.
