What is recorded here
Toberbrackan Castle stands in County Galway, waiting for a name bright enough to match its shape. It is not a grand hall or a famous battlefield, but a castle still unclassified, which means it may be greater than the people who failed to remember it. Perhaps it is a house for ghosts who never learned their own history.
