What is recorded here
Bullaundooda Tower stands in County Galway as a windmill, its purpose written in shape rather than memory. Whether it ground grain for neighbours or measured storms for sailors, the tower still turns its silent face toward the Atlantic, waiting for breath from the sea to remember why it was built.
