What is recorded here
Church tower and almshouse, Donyatt is a castle, fort or tower in Somerset, England. Perhaps the tower watched over poor souls in the almshouse while storms raged below. Maybe the stone walls still hold the warmth of shared meals and prayers. Imagine a hand pressing against rough brick, waiting for dawn or rescue.
