What is recorded here
Canon's Gate House is a castle in Dover, England. Perhaps it stood as a quiet guardpost along the white cliffs, watching ships rather than battling armies. Maybe canons and soldiers shared its gates, blending prayer with patrol in the same breath. Imagine a small stone room where a lamp burned through storms, marking the coast for anyone lost at sea.
