  1. Local Ruins

    Share Share Post
    There was a castle near my house long ago but it is now in ruins. It was in Mr. John Coyne field Bracklin, Kilbeggan, West-meath. The castle in Bracklin had one dungeon in it. People were put into the dungeon for fighting for the faith. There was one battle fought in a field near where the castle was and the people who killed in it were buried in a field beside the road. They were fighting for the faith
