What is recorded here
Caer Bach Prehistoric Hill Fort is a castle, fort or tower in Conwy, Wales. Perhaps people climbed the hill to watch storms arrive or mark the passing of seasons. Maybe the stones held warmth from many hands before written memory began. Imagine a small life moving through that ridge, reading the sky and shaping the land without leaving a name behind.
