What is recorded here

Charleville Castle is a Gothic mansion in County Offaly, built between 1800 and 1812 for the first Earl of Charleville. Francis Johnston designed the stark white walls that still rise beside the River Clodiagh, though the roof vanished by 1968 after decades of neglect. Volunteers now rebuild the rooms where Lord Byron once threw parties and William Morris painted a dining-room ceiling. The empty halls hold more than memory; they preserve the shape of every person who loved, feasted, or fled the house.
