What is recorded here
Church and castle overlooking Bridgend is a castle, fort or tower in Bridgend, Wales. Perhaps stones stood there before the town had a name, watching carts and coast roads pass below. Maybe a chapel and keep shared one ridge, binding prayer and defence in the same shadow. Imagine people climbing that ridge at dusk, reading the shape of the valley as if it were a sentence written for them.
